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 routers or ISPs 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.
Uses ISP DHCP server function.

4.Click [Save] when finished.
 The new settings are saved.
 When finished, the following page is displayed. 
Note
 The current network settings are shown on the Status page in the 
Maintenance section (see page 155).
5.Click [Restar t].
 The camera restarts, and the Top page is displayed.
 Checking [Yes] for [Allow Access from the Internet] on [Automatic Setup] 
may not display the Top page, because the port number may change. Use 
the Setup Program to access the camera.
Note
 If you do not know the camera IP address when setting [Automatic Setup] 
or [DHCP Setup], it can be searched for by the Setup Program (see page 
180).DHCP Setup Static Setup
 Clicking [Cancel] takes you back to the previous page without 
saving changes.

 When the camera is restarted, all buffered images in the internal memory 
are deleted. The buffered images on the SD memory card are not deleted.
Setting Description
Allow Access from 
the Internet 
(Automatic Setup 
Only) The allow Access from the Internet setting 
automatically configures the routers Port Forwarding 
setting (some routers call it Address Translation, 
Static IP Masquerade, Virtual Server or Port 
Mapping). To enable Internet access to the camera, 
check [Yes]. In this case, the camera automatically 
searches for unused port number on your network in  
order of 80 and from 50000 to 50050. To disable 
Internet access to the camera, check [No]. 
Network 
Configuration from 
Setup Program 
(Static/DHCP Only) To prohibit the Setup Program from changing the 
network settings, uncheck the box.
Po r t  N um be r  
(Static/DHCP Only) The default port number is 80. When you use multiple 
cameras with a router on your network, each camera 
must be assigned its own port number (see page 68 
2.7.2 Connecting the Camera to a Router that Does 
Not Support UPnP
™ (IPv4 Only)).
– Do not set the following port numbers.
FTP: 20 and 21, Telnet: 23, SMTP: 25, DNS: 53, 
POP3: 110, HTTPS: 443, ICQ: 4000 and IRC: 
6661—6667.
 Enter a number between 1—65535.
 Some ISPs do not allow you to use port 80. Ask your 
ISP or network administrator about which port 
numbers are accessible over the Internet.
 IP address
 Subnet Mask
(Static Only) If your ISP or network administrator specifies an IP 
address and subnet mask, enter them in each data 
field.
 If you use the camera on a LAN, set an IP address with 
the same class as your PC (see page 179).
 Set 4 numbers (0—255) and 3 periods, such as 
192.168.0.253. Note that 0.0.0.0 and 
255.255.255.255 are not available.
