Configuration Basics - GeoVision GV-Video Server User Manual

IMPORTANT:
•
Dynamic IP Address and PPPoE should only be enabled if you know which IP
address the GV-Video Server will get from the DHCP server or ISP. Otherwise,
you must use the Dynamic DNS service to obtain a domain name linked to the
GV-Video Server's changing IP address first.
For details on Dynamic DNS Server settings, see 4.7.3 Advanced TCP/IP.
•
If Dynamic IP Address and PPPoE is enabled and you cannot access the unit,
you may have to reset it to the factory default settings and then perform the
network settings again.
To restore the factory settings, see the Default button in 1.7.1 Front View.
