4.1.3 Linux

The installation on Linux systems does not require any
special software. The network camera is compatible to
Web browsers such as Firefox and Konqueror.

The initial installation requires the setup of the
camera’s IP address. As the camera by default obtains
an IP address from a DHCP server in the network (e.g.,
a router), you can access the camera as soon as you
have obtained the IP address from the router’s DHCP
client log. Alternatively, you may use Bonjour
(mDNSResponder), which is also available for Linux.

If no DHCP server is connected to your network, the camera reverts to its
default IP address 192.168.1.221. In order to gain access to the camera, you
need to change the IP settings of your system manually. Set up the IP address
to be in range of 192.168.1.xxx (where xxx is not 221). Then open your Web
browser and connect to address http://192.168.1.221. Log in to the camera
and click on the Settings link to open the administrator menu. Refer to section
5.2 Settings Page for more details.
