Operating Instructions 40 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 TM (Universal Plug and Play) to configure your router. • [Static] allows the user to use a specific IP address. • [DHCP] is offered for ISPs who require this option. 1.Click [Network (IPv4)] on the Setup page. 2.Click a connection mode. • Each page is displayed (see page 40—page 41). 3.Enter each parameter in the proper data field. Automatic Setup The camera automatically obtains the network settings (subnet mask, default gateway and DNS server address) utilizing a DHCP feature on the router. The camera also automatically searches the unused IP address on your network. If you select [Yes] at the Allow Access from the Internet, the camera automatically enables port forwarding by using UPnP TM. In this case, the camera automatically searches the unused port number on your network in the order from 50000 to 50050. • Clicking [Cancel] takes you back to the previous page without saving changes. Normally sets Automatic Setup. Uses a static IP address. Uses ISP DHCP server function.
