Below is an explanation of the fields on the TCP/IP settings tab:
• Host Name: This text field allows the user to change the host device name for the camera.
This field supports a maximum of 15 characters.
• Ethernet Card: This dropdown box allows the user to select which internet access device to
use. If the device is connected to a wired connection and a wireless one at the same time,
then this box will have options to pick either of the connections. The Set as Default button
allows the user to select one of the connection methods as the default one.
• Mode: Static vs DHCP: This radio button allows the user to choose between a static IP
address, and a dynamic IP address. DHCP stands for Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol,
and this enables the camera to automatically obtain an IP address from another network
device such as a server or more commonly, a router. When the DHCP function is enabled,
the user cannot modify the IP address, Subnet Mask, or Default Gateway, as these values
are obtained from the DHCP function. To view the current IP address, DHCP needs to be
disabled. Note: When PPPoE is enabled, modification of the IP Address, Subnet Mask, and
Gateway becomes prohibited.
Note: When connecting your device to an NVR, set the camera to Static. For more information

• MAC Address: This field shows the camera’s MAC address, which is unique to this device.
This number is read only and is used to access a local area network (LAN).
• IP Version: This dropdown allows the user to select the IP version. The two options are
IPV4 and
IPV6.
• IP Address: This field allows the user to enter a custom IP address.
• Subnet Mask: This field allows the user to enter a custom subnet mask.
