Sample Network Configurations
This section describes some typical installation modes for the VB101.
Sample LAN Environment Configuration
Sample Dialup Environment Configuration
This example shows the VB101 connected to a LAN by Ethernet. In this configuration, video
images can be used by viewers in the same Ethernet segment as the VB101 and by viewers with
access to that segment.
To send log information such as faults and access statuses by e-mail and save that information to
another computer, an SMTP server or a Syslog server is required.
To automatically assign an IP address for the VB101, a BOOTP server is required.
This example shows the VB101 connected in a dialup environment. In this configuration, video
images can be accessed by viewers which can dial up to the VB101 using a modem.
In this situation, a modem card must be inserted into the card slot (use a recommended modem
card). PPP (Point to Point Protocol) is used as the network protocol. For information on settings,
refer to Chapter 3 (→ P.39).

Sample Configuration in an ISP Environment
This example shows an environment in which the VB101 is connected to an ISP (Internet service
provider). In this configuration, video images is used by viewers capable of accessing the ISP.
Bidirectional communication is possible between the VB101 and the ISP, and a fixed IP address
must be set for the VB101.
