TL H.264 DVR User’s Manual

IP

This item is used to configure the IP (Internet Protocol) address of the DVR. The IP address is the identifier for the DVR on a TCP/IP LAN. Please note that to set a static IP address, DHCP must be set to <OFF>.

Netmask

A netmask is a 32-bit mask used to divide an IP address into subnets and specify the networks available hosts. Its value is defined by the network administrator. It takes the form as ***.***.***.***, for example, 255.255.255.0.

This item allows users to enter the value of the Netmask for the DVR. Please note that to configure this item, DHCP must be set to <OFF>.

Gateway

Gateway is a node on a network that serves as an entrance to another network. Users are allowed to specify the IP address of the gateway or router associated with this DVR. To configure this item, DHCP must be set to <OFF>.

DNS

DNS is the abbreviation for “Domain Name Server”, which is an Internet service that translates domain names into IP addresses. The advantage of using DNS is that domain names are easier to remember.

This item allows users to specify the IP address of the Domain Name System associated with the DVR. To configure this item, DHCP must be set to <OFF>.

If the server is unavailable when using DHCP, the DVR will search for the network server and boots up more slowly. This network search continues until it times out.

PPPoE Account

The item allows users to setup the PPPoE login username.

NOTE: For accessing the PPPoE settings, select <PPPoE> as the Network Type in Network Setup menu.
