Appendix F: Assigning A Fixed IP To Your DVR
is powered off. Likewise, a Fixed IP address must also be specified in your DVR so that even
if your DVR turns off, the IP address of the DVR remains the same. The static IP address
must be assigned in the router and DVR. The end result is that you can power on and off
the router and DVR, and the router will always assign the same IP address to the DVR.
Setting up a Fixed IP
Creating a static IP must be done on both the router and DVR.
NOTE: These ar
e guidelines on how to create a static IP. Refer to the DVR & Router’s owner’s
manual for details.
To create a static IP on the DVR:
1 Disabl
e DHCP on the DVR.
2 As
sign the designated local IP address of the DVR.
To create a static IP on the router:
1 Writ
e down the MAC address of your DVR.
2 In the "DHCP Reservation List", enter the DVR’s MAC address, and the desired IP that you
