110 en | Configuring the IP AutoDome VG4 Modular Camera System
F.01U.133.268 | 6.0 | 2010.03 User’s Manual Bosch Security Systems, Inc.
10.52 Advanced Mode: Network
The settings on this page are used to integrate the IP AutoDome into an existing network.
Some changes only take effect after the unit is rebooted. In this case, the Set button changes
to Set and Reboot.
1. Make the desired changes.
2. Click the Set and Reboot button. The IP AutoDome is rebooted and the changed settings
are activated.
Automatic IP assignment
If a DHCP server is employed in the network for the dynamic assignment of IP addresses, you
can activate acceptance of IP addresses automatically assigned to the IP AutoDome.
Certain applications (VIDOS, Bosch Video Management System, Archive Player, Configuration
Manager) use the IP address for the unique assignment of the unit. If you use these
applications, the DHCP server must support the fixed assignment between IP address and
MAC address, and must be appropriately set up so that, once an IP address is assigned, it is
retained each time the system is rebooted.
IP address
Enter the desired IP address for the IP AutoDome in this field. The IP address must be valid
for the network.
Subnet mask
Enter the appropriate subnet mask for the selected IP address here.
Gateway address
If you want the unit to establish a connection to a remote location in a different subnet, enter
the IP address of the gateway here. Otherwise leave the box blank (0.0.0.0).
DNS server address
The unit can use a DNS server to trigger an address specified as a name. Enter the IP address
of the DNS server here.
Video transmission
If the unit is operated behind a firewall, TCP (HTTP port) should be selected as the transfer
protocol. For use in a local network, select UDP.
HTTP browser port
Select a different HTTP browser port from the list if required. The default HTTP port is 80. If
you want to allow only secure connections via HTTPS, you must deactivate the HTTP port. In
this case, select Off.
CAUTION!
If you change the IP address, subnet mask or gateway address, the IP AutoDome is only
available under the new addresses after the reboot.
CAUTION!
Multicast operation is only possible with the UDP protocol. The TCP protocol does not
support multicast connections.
The MTU value in UDP mode is 1,514 bytes.
