If any entry in the IP address consists of two digits or one digit, add “0” or “00” at the beginning so that entry will consist of three digits.

Click the input box and enter an address value. If you missed entering any address value, hold down Skip on the screen keyboard while you skip to the last entry of the address, then reenter the correct value.

Once you have finished with all the settings, press SAVE and then restart the DS-L1.

To revert to the initially set value, press Default and then SAVE and restart the DS-L1.

Settings for improved security

To improve security, make the following settings on the Network Settings screen.

Be aware that the transferred images and information are not encrypted.

Limiting logins by User ID and Password settings

In the Internal Server, set a user ID and a password.

User ID

Input (up to 10 characters)

Pass Word

Input (up to 10 characters)

Once you set a user ID, you will be asked to provide authentication when connecting to the DS-L1 from a browser. You cannot log in unless you supply your user ID and password.

If the user ID is defaulted to “anonymous,” anybody can access your DS-L1 via a network.

NOTE: Note that if you save a password as the default word “none” without changing it, the word “none” will become your password.
