Detailed Settings
IPv6(1) [IPv6]
Select [Disable] or [Enable] regarding the use of IPv6.
(2) [IPv6 Address]
If [Enable] is selected for IPv6, an automatically acquired address will be shown.
Note
zFor [IP Address], [Subnet Mask] and [Default Gateway Address], contact your network
administrator.
zIf any of the [IP Address], [Subnet Mask] and [Default Gateway Address] settings is wrong,
network access may be disabled. In this case, use VB Initial Setting Tool ("Perform Initial
Setting of the Camera" in Start Guide) to set the address again.
zIf the [IP Address], [Subnet Mask], [Default Gateway Address], [LAN Interface] or
[Maximum Packet Si ze] setting is changed, the camera may become no longer accessible
from the active browser. Check beforehand the precautions explained in "Notes" in "Setting
the Items Requiring Rebooting (Reboot Item)" ( P. 1-49). Also check the precautions in the
same section before changing each setting in "[IPv6]" ( P. 1-9) and "DNS" ( P. 1-10).
zIf [Auto (DHCP)] is selected as the address setting mode, the IP address may not be
assigned correctly in certain environments, such as when a router is present between the
DHCP server and this camera. In this case, assign a fixed IP address by selecting
[Manual].
zIf you are using IPv6, set 1280 or greater value under [Maximum Packet Size].
Tip
zIf you are using optical fiber or ADSL, you may be able to improve the sending efficiency by
slightly reducing the maximum packet size.
zYou can use the VB Initial Setting Tool to check the IP address assigned by [Auto (DHCP)].
Tip
In an environment where IPv6 cannot be used, the [IPv6 Address] field remains blank even
when [Used] is selected for IPv6.
