Assign an IP address
Most networks today have a DHCP server that automatically assigns IP addresses to connected devices. If your
network does not have a DHCP server, the AXIS 231D+/232D+ will use 192.168.0.90 as the default IP address.
If you would like to assign a static IP address the recommended method in Windows is either AXIS IP Utility or
AXIS Camera Management. Depending on the number of cameras you wish to install, use the method that best
suits your purpose.
Both of these free applications are available on the Axis Network Video Product CD supplied with this product, or
they can be downloaded from www.axis.com/techsup
Notes:
• If assigning the IP address fails, check that there is no firewall blocking the operation.
• For other methods of assigning or discovering the IP address of the AXIS 231D+/232D+, e.g. in other
operating systems, see page 10.
