3. 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.
zAlways consult your network administrator before assigning an IP address to your server in order to
avoid using a previously assigned IP address.
zEnsure the network camera is powered on and correctly connected to the network.
zMAC Address: Each network camera has a unique Ethernet address (MAC address) shown on the
sticker of the camera.
zOne 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.
