Network
Basic TCP/IP Settings
The Axis product supports IP version 4 and IP version 6. Both versions can be enabled simultaneously, and at least one version
must always be enabled.
IPv4 Address Conguration
By default, the Axis product is set to use IPv4 (IP version 4) and to obtain the IP address automatically via DHCP. The IPv4 settings are
congured under System Options > Network > TCP/IP > Basic.
DHCP (Dynamic Host Conguration Protocol) allows netw ork administrators to centrally manage and automate the assignment of
IP addresses. DHCP should only be enabled if u sing dynamic IP address notication, or if the DHCP can update a DNS server. It is
then possible to a ccess the Axis p roduct by name (host name).
If DHCP is enabled and the p roduct cannot be accessed, run AXIS IP Utility to search the network for connected Axis products, or reset
the product to the factory default settings (see
page 45
) and then perform the installation again.
