| |
Device Name | By default, the device name is the device type plus the MAC Address. Honeywell | |||
| recommends, for security, that you change the device name. | |||
|
|
|
| |
MAC Address | The MAC address is a | |||
|
|
|
| |
IP Address | The IP address of the device on the network.The camera obtains an IP address | |||
| by static or dynamic (automatic) means. There are two options: DHCP (dynamic), | |||
| assigned by the user, or APIPA (static), assigned by the network. | |||
|
|
|
| |
Subnet Mask | The subnet mask, or netmask, value of the device on the network. IP networks | |||
| can be divided into several smaller networks by subnetting. When a network is | |||
| subnetted, you must specify a subnet mask, which tells network devices which | |||
| smaller network they belong to. | |||
| Note If the subnet mask is not properly configured, the camera might not be | |||
|
| able to communicate with other devices on the network. | ||
|
|
|
| |
Default Gateway | The default gateway address that connects the device to the network. Enter the | |||
| host IP address to use as a gateway between networks. The gateway allows | |||
| communication between devices that are on different networks. Without a correct | |||
| gateway setting, the camera cannot receive or transmit data from or to devices | |||
| that are not in the same network address range. | |||
