    2.2 Checking the IP Address By default, an unused IP address is automatically assigned by the DHCP server to the GV-Video Server when connecting to the network. Follow the steps below to look up the IP address and access the Web interface. Install the GV-IP Device Utility program included on the Software CD/DVD.

  • Page 27: Changing The Ip Address

    Getting Started 2.3 Changing the IP Address To assign a static IP address or establish a connection to your ISP, log in the Web interface to access the network setting page. Note: If your router does not support DHCP, the default IP address will be 192.168.0.10. In this case, it is strongly suggested to modify the IP address to avoid the IP address conflict with other GV-IP device on the same LAN.

  • Page 28: Configuring The Basic

    IMPORTANT: • PPPoE should only be enabled if you know which IP address the GV-Video Server will get from the ISP. Otherwise, you must use the Dynamic DNS service to obtain a domain name linked to the GV-Video Server’s changing IP address first.
