MAIN MENU
Type:
Determines how the DVR will acquire an IP address; DHCP, Static or PPPoE.
DHCP:
DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) address is the most common setup for home or office networks. This
allows the DVR to automatically receive an IP address from the router. By default the IP mode will be set to DHCP and,
in most situations this is acceptable.
Static IP:
Static IP addresses are manually assigned by an administrator. A static IP address would be beneficial if your internal
IP address changes often. Most home or office networks today do not use static IP addresses. If you are unsure of
whether you need a static or dynamic IP address, please contact your network administrator.
PPPoE:
Used for DSL services where individuals connect to a DSL modem. It is recommended to store the PPPoE information
in the router, if the PPPoE information is not stored in the router, the DSL modem will need to be configured. If you are
using a PPPoE connection, contact your Internet Service Provider for your PPPoE name and password.
To adjust the type of IP Mode you are using:
1. Select the drop down menu beside the word TYPE.
2. Highlight the IP Mode you would like to use and press select.
3. Select "apply" to save settings.
