1. The two LAN ports can be congured into the same or different subnets, or into a failover or
load-sharing trunk group.
2. Client computers should support IE8 browser at a minimum of 1280x960 resolution or higher.
NOTE:
1. The two LAN ports must not be managed by different DHCP servers or routers.
2. It is recommended all network cameras use static IPs. If you let a DHCP server assign IPs to
these cameras, IPs may be changed later and the NVR may not recognize them.
3. The NVR only receives H.264 and MPEG-4 video streams. If your cameras are congured to
deliver MJPEG streams, please change their video stream conguration.
4. The maximum recording bandwidth is 96Mbps using single disks or RAID0/1, and 48Mbps
using a RAID5 volume.
