to the camera. Assign an IP address that is unique to your local network.
When using a fixed IP address, you must configure the IP address,
subnet mask, gateway, and DNS.
- Obtain An IP Address Automatically—The camera defaults to this
option, allowing a DHCP server on your network to automatically assign
the camera an IP address.

• Subnet Mask—Subnet mask assigned to the camera.
• Gateway—IP address of the gateway router between this device and
management stations that exist on other network segments.

translates the names of websites into IP addresses.
• Secondary DNS—The IP address of your ISP’s secondary server, which
translates the names of websites into IP addresses.
