directly to the device for initial configuration.
The VGADVI Recorder is pre-configured with the following static address defaults:
l

l
Netmask: 255.255.255.252

User Name: admin
l
Password: your admin password (by default set to no password)

3. Establish an Ethernet connection between the VGADVI Recorder and the workstation by one of the
following methods:

crossover Ethernet cable.
