Page 69: Networking Overview
Chapter 6 NETWORKING OVERVIEW This chapter will give you a basic instruction on how to set up the DVR for network connection. It is highly recommended that you have a working knowledge of what a network is and how it works. This will be helpful in completing the networking process. -
Page 70: Pre-Installation
Internet users always know the address of your location and can easily connect with it. This makes it much simpler to host a website, email server, or other type of server connection. Everfocus suggests using a static IP address. If this is not available, you will need to use a dynamic IP address. This is explained below. -
Page 71: What Is Your Network Setup
IP information can be stored and retrieved. It allows those using a dynamic IP address to be registered centrally so users can connect to it by name. See Chapter 7 for details on using EverFocus DDNS. What type of DVR are you installing? - Page 72 Once you have a cross-over cable, plug one end into the LAN port on the back of the DVR and the other into the network card’s connector (LAN port) on the back of the computer. Log into the EverFocus DVR menu and go to the Network Setting Menu. You must use the Static IP option for this type of connection.

Page 76: Router Or Lan Connection
Note: If you have a dynamic IP address, you can set the DVR to DHCP to automatically detect the network settings. However, if you want to access the DVR over the Internet (not just over a LAN), it is highly recommended that you use a static IP address. - Page 77 Once you have a straight-through cable, plug one end into the LAN port on the back of the DVR and the other into the router. Using the DVR’s mouse or front-panel buttons, log into the EverFocus DVR go to the Network Setting menu. To let the router automatically assign an address (dynamic IP address): Set the Network Type to DHCP.
- Page 78 Take the computer’s values for Subnet Mask and Default Gateway and input them into the DVR; these values should be exactly the same in both devices. However, you should change the last number of the IP address. For example, if the IP address of the computer is 192.168.2.101, the DVR’s IP address should be 192.168.002.050.
