The camera can automatically obtain its network parameters using DHCP. This requires
the network to have a functioning DHCP server (for example, a DSL router with activated
DHCP server) and the camera must be booted using DHCP (see Section 3.2.6, Starting the
Camera With an Automatic IP Address (DHCP)). The IP address automatically assigned
by the DHCP server will be announced via the camera speaker as soon as the camera
has booted successfully.
