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 211W 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 211W, e.g. in other
operating systems, see page 15.
