Network - Basic TCP/IP Settings
IP Address Configuration
The IP address of the video server can be set automatically via DHCP, or a fixed IP address
can be set manually. DHCP is enabled by default. To use a fixed IP address, you must also
enter the correct subnet mask and default router.
Notes: •DHCP is a protocol for automatic IP address assignment on a network. IP address assignment via
DHCP may lead to the situation where the IP address changes and you lose contact. Configure
the options for notification of IP address change (under Services) to receive notification from
the video server when the IP address changes.
•Alternatively, if your DHCP server can update a DNS server, you can access the AXIS 240Q by
host name which is always the same, regardless of the IP address.
