If you do not intend to use the default settings, or if you will be using multiple cameras, you will need to enter a different port number (i.e., 83, 84, etc.).

    J. Glossary of Terms Numbers 10BASE-T 10BASE-T is (10Mbps) Ethernet over UTP Category III,IV, or V unshielded twisted-pair media. 100BASE-TX The two-pair twisted-media implementation of 100BASE-T is called 100BASE-TX (100Mbps Fast Ethernet). 802.11g An IEEE standard for wireless local area networks. It offers transmissions speeds of up to 54 Mbps in the 2.4-GHz band.
  • Page 99 DHCP Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol was developed by Microsoft and is a protocol for assigning dynamic IP addresses to devices on a network. With dynamic addressing, a device can have a different IP address every time it connects to the network. In some systems, the device's IP address can even change while it is still connected.
  • Page 100 Group Groups consist of several user machines that have similar characteristics, such as being in the same department. Short for hexadecimal, “HEX” refers to the base-16 number system, which consists of 16 unique symbols: the numbers 0 to 9 and the letters A through F. For example, the decimal number 15 is represented as F in the hexadecimal numbering system.
  • Page 101 JAVA Java is a programming language that is specially designed for writing programs that can be safely downloaded to your computer through the Internet without the fear of viruses. It is an object- oriented multi-thread programming best for creating applets and applications for the Internet, Intranet and other complex, distributed networks.
  • Page 102 Protocol Communication on the network is governed by sets of rules called protocols. Protocols provide the guidelines devices use to communicate with each other, and thus they have different functions. Some protocols are responsible for formatting and presenting data that will be transferred from file server memory to the file server’s network adapter.
  • Page 103 Transceiver A transceiver joins two network segments together. Transceivers can also be used to join a segment that uses one medium to a segment that uses a different medium. On a 10BASE-5 network, the transceiver connects the network adapter or other network device to the medium. Transceivers also can be used on 10BASE-2 or 10BASE-T networks to attach devices with AUI ports.
