IP Assignment
DHCP
By default, NetCam SC boots up in DHCP mode, meaning that
it probes the network for a DHCP server. If there is a DHCP server
on the network, the camera is automatically assigned an IP address,
subnet mask, gateway, and name servers. No manual configuration is
needed. One negative of DHCP mode is not knowing which IP address
the camera was given. Use the StarDot Tools software to find DHCP-
assigned cameras on your local network.
Manual
If you'd like to manually assign an IP address, set the camera to
Manual and provide the following information:
•
IP Address - The IP address you'd like to assign the camera.
Consult your network administrator to determine which IP
address
to use. If you are setting up the camera behind a residential
gateway or cable/DSL router, your IP address will probably be
something similar to 192.168.1.5.
•
Subnet Mask - Find out your netmask from your network
administrator. If you're on a private network, your netmask will
almost always be 255.255.255.0.
•
MAC Address - This is the factory-set Ethernet address of
the camera. It also serves as the Camera ID (serial number). It
cannot be changed.
