Note
When you configure an adapter to use a fixed address, there are some things
that you must keep in mind:
Tip
There is a convenient "trick" that is handy during your initial camera design-in
process or when working with cameras in your lab. You can set your network
adapter to a fixed address in the automatic IP address range (169.254.0.0 to
169.254.255.255) with a subnet mask of 255.255.0.0 and you can set your
camera(s) for automatic private IP address assignment (APIPA). With these
settings, a camera and an adapter can establish a network connection very
quickly. This can save you some time if you are connecting and disconnecting
cameras or switching the system on and off as you would during design-in.

If your PC has multiple network adapters, each adapter must be in a
different subnet.
The recommended range for fixed IP addresses is from 172.16.0.1 to
172.32.255.254 and from 192.168.0.1 to 192.168.255.254. These
address ranges have been reserved for private use according to IP
standards.
If you are assigning fixed IP addresses to you cameras, keep in mind that
for a camera to communicate properly with a network adapter, it must be
in the same subnet as the adapter to which it is attached.
