C. IP Assignment
IP Installer is a utility that provides an easier, more efficient way to configure the IP address and network settings of the network camera. It even provides a convenient way to set the network settings for multiple devices simultaneously using the batch setting function. Moreover, IP Installer can save the network settings for all devices as a backup and restore them when necessary. z Always consult your network administrator before assigning an IP address to your server in order to avoid using a previously assigned IP address. z Ensure the network camera is powered on and correctly connected to the network. z MAC Address: Each network camera has a unique Ethernet address (MAC address) shown on the sticker of the camera. z One final note, although the IP Installer is able to find and configure any network camera on the LAN except those that are behind a router, it is a good idea to set the host PC to the same subnet. In order to connect to the Web-based user interface of the network camera, the host PC must be in the same subnet. For more information about subnets, please consult your network administrator.
