  • Page 35: Checking The Ip Address

    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 from GeoVision download page: http://www.geovision.com.tw/download/product/. Note: The PC installed with GV-IP Device Utility must be under the same LAN as the GV-Video Server you wish to configure.

  • Page 36: Changing The Ip Address

    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 IP address conflict with other GV-IP device on the same LAN.

  • Page 37: Configuring The Basics

    Getting Started 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. For details on Dynamic DNS Server settings, see 4.7.3 Advanced TCP/IP.
