    Note It is the huge advantage of Zeroconf/Bonjour, that you do not need to know the IP address or the name of the MOBOTIX camera in or- der to access it. Another advantage of Bonjour is the fact that cameras are found re- gardless if they are in the same subnet as the computer or in other subnets, as long as they are in the same physical network.
