Network - TCP/IP Settings

IP Address Configuration
The IP address of the video server can be set automatically via DHCP, or a fixed IP address
can be set manually. A host name can be used and there are options for setting up
notification of changes in the IP address. DHCP is enabled by default.
Note:
DHCP is a protocol for automatic IP address assignment on a network. IP address assignment via DHCP may
lead to the situation where the IP address is changed and you lose contact. Configure the options for noti-
fication of IP address change (under Services) to receive notification from the video server, when the IP
address has been changed.
Alternatively, if your DHCP server can update a DNS server, you can access the AXIS 241Q/241S by host
name which is always the same, regardless of the IP address.
Auto-Configure Link-Local Address is enabled by default and assigns the AXIS
241Q/241S with an additional IP address for the UPnP protocol. The AXIS 241Q/241S can
have both a Link-Local IP and a static/DHCP-supplied IP address at the same time - these
will not affect each other. See UPnP, on page 36.
DNS Configuration
DNS (Domain Name Service) provides the translation of host names to IP addresses on
your network.
Obtain DNS server address via DHCP - automatically use the DNS server settings provided
by the DHCP server. Click the View button to see the current settings.
Use the following DNS server address - enter the desired DNS server by specifying the
following:
Domain name - enter the domain(s) to search for the host name used by the AXIS
241Q/241S. Multiple domains can be separated by semicolons (;). The host name is always
the first part of a Fully Qualified Domain Name, e.g. myserver is the host name in the
Fully Qualified Domain Name myserver.mycompany.com where mycompany.com is the
Domain name.
Primary DNS server - enter the IP address of the primary DNS server.
Secondary DNS server - will be used if the primary DNS server is unavailable.
