2.2 Connecting the Camera to Your IPv4 Network
The Network page offers three options to configure the camera in IPv4.
• [Automatic Setup] automatically assigns an unused IP address to the camera,
and uses UPnP™ (Universal Plug and Play) to configure your router.
• [Static] allows the user to use a specific IP address.
• [DHCP] is offered for ISPs that require this option.
1. Click [Network (IPv4)] on the Setup page.
2. Click a connection mode.
• See below for details of each connection mode.
3. Enter each parameter in the relevant data field.
Automatic Setup
The camera automatically obtains the network settings (subnet mask, default
gateway and DNS server address) using the router's or ISP's DHCP feature.
The camera also automatically searches for an unused IP address on your
network. If you select [Yes] for Allow Access from the Internet, the camera
automatically enables port forwarding using UPnP™. In this case, the camera
automatically searches for an unused port number on your network in order
of 80 and from 50000 to 50050.
• Clicking [Cancel] takes you back to the previous page without saving
changes.
Most common mode of setup.
Uses a static IP address.
