Procedure

Step 1 Start Internet Explorer and enter the following in the address field:

protocol://ip_address:port_number

where:

•protocol is HTTPS for a secure connection or HTTP for a non-secure connection. You can use HTTP only if you configure the camera to accept non-secure HTTP connections as described in the “Performing the Initial Setup of the IP Camera” section on page 2-5.

•ip_address is the IP address of the IP camera. The default IP address is 192.168.0.100.

•Enter the following for a non-secure connection if the IP address is 203.70.212.52 and the HTTP port number is 80:

http://203.70.212.52

•Enter the following for a non-secure connection if the IP address is 203.70.212.52 and the HTTP port number is 1024:

http://203.70.212.52:1024
