*)
This function (GevCurrentIPConfigurationPersistentIP) is deactivated by default.
13.5.1 Persistent IP
A persistent IP is permanently assigned. Validity unlimited. This function is disabled by default.
Activate the function via the function GevCurrentIPConfigurationPersistentIP.
INFO
Make sure PC and camera are operated in the same subnet.
13.5.2 DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol)
DHCP is for automated assignment of network parameters such as IP addresses, subnet masks
and gateways.
Once connected to a DHCP-enabled network with DHCP server, the camera will be assigned
the appropriate IP configurations.
13.5.3 LLA (Link-Local-Address)
LLA (Link-Local Address) refers to an IP address range from 169.254.0.1 to
169.254.254.254 and is utilized for automated IP address assignment, if no other method of
IP assignment is available.
The IP address host-defined by pseudo-random number generator operating in the above IP
range.
Once an address has been selected, it is transmitted to the network together with an ARP query
(Address Resolution Protocol) to verify whether the address does already exist. Depending on
the answer (i.e. does not already exist), the device is assigned the IP address or the process
will repeat.
This may take some time - the GigE Vision
®
standard specifies that connection setup via LLA
should not take longer than 40 seconds, in the worst case it can take up to several minutes.
