3.3. Network

The Network page allows you to modify the network settings of the wired Ethernet

connection. The default settings use DHCP to obtain an IP address automatically. In

most home and office network environments, there is a DHCP server running. In this

situation, by using these default settings, the IP CAM can work immediately.

If the Ethernet cable is unplugged, the IP CAM will lose connection. But as soon

as the Ethernet cable is plugged in again, the IP CAM will obtain a new IP address

immediately.

If the network environment does not support the DHCP function you will need to

configure the network settings of the IP CAM manually. Fill in all the fields including

"IP address”, "Subnet mask”, "Default gateway”, and "DNS server”, to establish a

network connection. All these settings must be correct for your network environment

or the IP CAM will not work. The default setting is "Obtain an IP address

automatically”.
