The Network menu allows
you to configure the system’s
DDNS and network settings.
Configuring Network type : DHCP
& Static IP
The system has the ability to operate in
DHCP mode and Static IP mode.
DHCP allows the router to assign an IP
to the DVR. Static IP mode fixes the IP of
the DVR. Fixing an IP of the DVR
ensures that the IP will not change.
To configure DHCP and Static IP
settings:
1 In the TYPE drop-down menu, select DHCP
or Static. If you select DHCP, the router
automatically assigns an IP to your DVR.
• If you select Static, click the field beside
IP Address, and enter in the IP address of
your choice.
• Enter your custom NetMask, Gateway,
DNS1 and DNS2 using the mouse.
• You must assign the IP in your router that
you wish to make static. For example, if
you assign 192.168.2.89 as the static IP in
the DVR, you must assign 192.168.2.89 in
your router as a static IP as well. Consult
your router’s user’s manual for details.
