Set The Ip Address; One-Click Installation - Axis 206 Family User Manual

Set the IP address

The AXIS 206/206M is designed for installation on an Ethernet network. This involves
assigning it an IP address, automatically (via e.g. DHCP) or manually. Several methods are
available. The one to use depends on how your network is configured. If unsure of the
method to use, please consult your network administrator, or see the network's
documentation.
• If you are using e.g. a home broadband router, you may find it convenient to view the
router's administration pages to discover which IP address has been assigned to your AXIS
206/206M. Please consult the router's documentation for further information.
• If your network has an Internet connection (with no HTTP proxy) and uses a DHCP server
to assign IP addresses, use the One-Click installation procedure. See page 11.
• If your network uses automatic IP addressing (DHCP) and your computer uses the UPnP
service, the AXIS 206/206M will automatically be detected and displayed on your screen.
See page 12 for more information.
• Use AXIS IP Utility (see page 12) to discover the IP address. This can also be used to set
the IP addess manually.
• Set the IP address manually with the ARP/Ping method, as described on page 14.
• The default static IP address for the AXIS 206 is 192.168.0.90
