SUNBA Network Series - 4. Camera Network Configuration; Step 1: Understand the Goal of IP Configuration

- 06 -
Router IP is usually the same value as the “gateway” (with few exceptions),
which the camera’s IP will have to match.
Step 1: Understand the Goal of IP Conguration
No matter what IP Camera Management Software you intend to use later,
the rst step is to make sure your router, computer and the IP Camera are
on the same subnet. Being on the same subnet means “the rst three
octets or segments in the IP address are the same.”
For example
4. Camera Network Conguration
You must rst change the camera’s IP to match the IP of your router!
If your router is 10.0.0.1 and your camera is still 192.168.1.10 (default IP)
you will NOT be able to access the camera by typing 192.168.1.10 in the
web address without changing its IP rst.
