2. Enter the IP address designated using the Panasonic "IP Setting Software" in the address box of the
browser.
•Example when entering an IPv4 address: http://URL registered using IPv4 address
http://192.168.0.10/
•Example when entering an IPv6 address: http://[URL registered using IPv6 address]
http://[2001:db8::10]/
<Example of IPv4 access>
<Example of IPv6 access>
IMPORTANT
•When the HTTP port number is changed from “80”, enter “http://IP address of the camera + : (colon)
+ port number” in the address box of the browser. (Example: http://192.168.0.11:8080)
•When the PC is in a local network, configure the proxy server setting of the web browser (under
[Internet Options...] under [Tools] of the menu bar) to bypass the proxy server for the local address.
Note
•Refer to “17.3 Access the camera using the HTTPS protocol” (®page 126) for further information
