Monoprice 9204 IP Camera - Manual (Page 18)

MPEG-4 wired/wireless IP Camera
3.3. Network
The Network page allows you to modify the network settings of the wired
Ethernet. The default settings use DHCP to obtain an IP address automatically. In
most of the home and office network environment, there is a DHCP server running. In
this situation, by using this default settings, the IP Camera can work immediately in
most of the time.
If the Ethernet cable is unplugged, the IP Camera will lose connection. But as
soon as the Ethernet cable is plugged in again, the IP Camera will obtain a new IP
address immediately.
Figure 3-5: Network settings page for DHCP function
If the network environment does not support DHCP function, you will need to set
the network settings of the IP Camera manually. Please fill all the fields including “IP
address”, “Subnet mask”, “Default gateway” and “DNS server” to let the network work.
All these settings must be correct for your network environment, otherwise the IP
Camera can not work.
The default setting is “Obtain an IP address automatically”.
