Accessing the IP Camera Windows
To access the IP camera windows, follow these steps:
Procedure
Step 1 Start Internet Explorer and enter the following in the address field:
protocol:// ip_addr ess:port_ number
where:
protocol is HTTPS for a secure connection or HTTP for a non-secure connection. You can use
HTTP only if you configure the camera to accept non-secure HTTP connections as described in the
“Performing the Initial Setup of the IP Camera” section on page 2-7.
ip_address is the IP address of the IP camera. The default IP address is 192.168.0.100.
port_number is the port number that is used for HTTPS or HTTP connections to the IP camera. You
do not need to enter a port number if you are connecting through the default HTTPS port 443 or the
default HTTP port 80.
For example,
Enter the following for a secure connection if the IP address is 192.168.0.100 and the HTTPS port
number is 443:
https://192.168.0.100
Enter the following for a secure connection if the IP address is 203.70.212.52 and the HTTPS port
number is 1024:
https://203.70.212.52:1024
Enter the following for a non-secure connection if the IP address is 203.70.212.52 and the HTTP
port number is 80:
http://203.70.212.52
Enter the following for a non-secure connection if the IP address is 203.70.212.52 and the HTTP
port number is 1024:
http://203.70.212.52:1024
Step 2 Enter your IP camera user name and password when prompted, then click OK.
To log in as the IP camera administrator, enter the user name admin (all lower case) and the password
