Step 10 You may simply accept the suggested default setting DHCP if your router’s DHCP server is
enabled, so the router will automatically assign a dynamic IP address to your camera. Another option is to
select Static IP, the IP address you configure must match with your local network setting. For example, if
your router’s IP address is 192.168.2.1, and its subnet mask is 255.255.255.0, the IP address you assign
to the camera must be 192.168.2.x, where x is a number from 2~254, not within the DHCP range (i.e.
100~199). You can refer to the router’s user manual to find out the required information.
The settings configured in the below sample are for your reference:
IP Address: 192.168.2.240
Submask: 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway: 192.168.2.1 (this is the router’s IP address)
The benefit of setting a static IP for your camera is that you can always locate it with its fixed IP address.
NOTE If you are not sure how to configure the correct IP settings, you can select DHCP to let your router
dynamically assign an IP to your camera.
Note Be sure to enter Primary/Secondary DNS addresses assigned by your ISP if you set up Static
IP for the camera so that the Email alert / FTP uploading can function properly.
