Ho w t Determine the IP Addressing Scheme for your Network o
The exa mple shown here illustrates how to de
sche e m for your network, using the Windows XP operating system. The
procedu re is similar for all other versions of Windows.
When s etting an IP address, you must make sure that the address you
specify has the same first three octets (or segments) as the other devices
on your LAN. In the figure on the previous page, the camera has the
foll ow g IP address: 10.1.1.114. The address is comprised of four in
segm n e ts separated by periods. Each segment is called an "octet". All
devices on your LA

Sele n cti g a number towards the end of the range (preferably between 200
and 250 ) will help avoid conflicts with IP addresses that are already
being u sed by other devices on the LAN.
