IMPORTANCE
• Please use the newly assigned IP address, do NOT use any occupied IP address or the default or
example IP address.
• It is highly recommended that you assign an IP address before placing the Wireless Network IP
Camera in a remote place or remote network.
• Network IP Address
:
A network IP address is an identification code for computers or devices on a TCP/IP network.
Networks using TCP/IP protocol route messages based on the IP address of the destinations within
a closed Network. IP addresses can be assigned at random as long as each one is unique. However,
connecting a private network to the Internet requires using registered, public IP address to avoid
duplicates.
IP address can be acquired from a network administrator or an Internet service provider.
• MAC (Ethernet) Address (Media Access Control Address)
MAC address is a hardware identification code that uniquely identifies each device of a network.
The MAC layer interfaces directly with the network media. Consequently, each type of network
media requires a different MAC layer. The MAC address of Wireless Network IP Camera is a 12-
digit number. A unique MAC address can be found on the label at the bottom of each Network IP
Camera.
NOTE
Please install the IP address installation program (IP Installer.exe) on a PC that is connected to
the same local network as the Wireless Network IP Camera.
