6.23 Network Setup
Network Setup allows you to prepare the DVR for viewing over the internet or local network.
MAC ADDRESS: In a local area network(LAN)，
the MAC (Media Access Control) address is your computer’s unique hardware identity
code.(On an Ethernet LAN，it is the same as
your Ethernet address.) When you are connected to the Internet from your computer
(or host as the Internet protocol thinks of it )，a
corresponding table relates your IP address to your computer’s physical (MAC) address on the LAN.
[Important]: This setting should only be changed if multiple DVRs are being setup on the same network.
IP ALLOCATION: DVR supports DHCP and Static IP modes. If your modem/router supports DHCP mode use DHCP. When using STATIC mode, you will be required to setup your internet settings manually.
Note: After setting the DVR to DHCP mode restart the unit.
IP Address: In a local network, the IP address is a unique designated address for your DVR recognized by your router. Ensure this number is within the range usable by your modem/router. Use the UP “▲”and DOWN “▼” buttons to move the cursor and use the “SELECT” button to change the numbers. Once you have finished the changes restart your DVR.
