6. NETWORK
The static service consists of an IP address which remains constant for the
duration of the contract of the internet service. Whereas the dynamic service
consists of an IP address that changes every time a new connection is made
through the provided modem, or recurrently in a given period of time. Though
most internet service providers offer both solutions, this manual will distinguish
between the two solutions to configure the DVR for the networking purposes.
6.1. Ethernet
1. Static IP
If Static IP is selected, the following settings are available:
1) IP Address: Enter the static IP address
2) Netmask: Enter the IP address of subnet mask.
3) Gateway: Enter the IP address for the internet gateway server.
4) PRI.DNS Server: Verify the name of the domain name system.
5) SEC.DNS Server: Enter the IP address of the backup domain name
system (DNS) server that the DVR will use to convert names to IP
addresses. This server is used if the primary DNS server fails.
Note: if you do not set up DNS server correctly, you will have a problem
with sending mail.
2. DHCP: Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol.
Is automatically set On from Local DHCP if there is alLocal DHCP server
(i.e. The local Router). If DHCP is set to ON, the IP address, Gateway and
subnet Mask will be assigned by DHCP server (i.e. the Local Area Network
Router).
