Part 1 - Getting Started
– Link-local address: Indicates the default IP
address.
– Manual: Allows you to enter the IP address and
other network settings manually.
– DHCP Client: Retrieves an IP address and other
network settings automatically from a DHCP server.

– DHCP Server: It makes the NVR run as a DHCP
server. Check if there is another DHCP server on
the same network. If there is no DHCP server,
this option is enabled. The NVR allocates an IP
address automatically in the range of 10.10.0.128
to 10.10.254.254 by using DHCP to the camera
connected to the NVR's VIDEO IN port. On DHCP
Server, Video In Network is connected between
NVR and network cameras only, so Gateway
does not have any meaning. Subnet Mask is
255.255.0.0(Class B).
• When several NVRs exist in the same network,
only one of NVRs has to be run as a DHCP
server. If several DHCP servers are running, the
redundant IP may be allocated to the camera.
• It is not recommended to use addresses in the
range from 10.10.0.1 to 10.10.0.127 because
they can be allocated by a DHCP server.
