12.1 Configuring General Settings

Purpose
Network settings must be properly configured before you operate DVR over network.
Step 1 Go to Menu > Configuration > Network > General.
Step 2 On the General Settings interface, you can configure the following parameters: Working
Mode (applicable for 1.5U/2U 5MP non-real time series), NIC Type, IPv4 Address, IPv4
Gateway, MTU, DNS Server and Main NIC.
Working Mode
There are two 10M/100M/1000M NIC cards provided by 1.5U/2U 5MP non-real time series
DVR, and it allows the device to work in Multi-address and Net-fault Tolerance.
 Multi-address Mode: The parameters of the two NIC cards can be configured
independently. You can select LAN1 or LAN2 in the NIC type field for parameter settings.
You can select one NIC card as default route. And then the system is connecting with the
extranet and the data will be forwarded through the default route.
 Net-fault Tolerance Mode: The two NIC cards use the same IP address, and you can select
the Main NIC to LAN1 or LAN2. By this way, in case of one NIC card failure, the device will
automatically enable the other standby NIC card so as to ensure the normal running of the
whole system.
 The valid value of MTU is from 500 to 1500.
 If the DHCP server is available, you can check the checkbox of Enable DHCP to
automatically obtain an IP address and other network settings from that server.
