  • Page 23: Network Configuration

    Network Configuration The IP Camera acts as one of the network devices. It allows user to configure the network functionalities based on applications. This section will describe the network configurations. Fundamentally, for instance, the IP assignment of the device can be done via DHCP server, static IP option or PPPoE to obtain IP from the service provider.
  • Page 24 NOTE1: If you would like to connect camera with IPv6 address, please note that this only works if your network environment and hardware equipment support IPv6. The browser should be Microsoft® Internet Explorer 6.5, Mozilla Firefox 3.0 or above. NOTE2: (Link with IPv6 address as following steps) 1.
  • Page 25 Quality Service Quality Service provides network traffic management to guarantee the quality of services in higher priority, especially when network is insufficient. DSCP (Different Service Code Point) is a 6-bit IP header which defines the service level of the packet. According to the DSCP value, routers with PHB (Per-Hop Behavior) will define a specific class of traffic for the packet, in terms of bandwidth, latency, or loss rate, etc.
  • Page 26 The HTTP port is basically provided for device’s webpage access. When the video format is set to MJPEG, user is able to retrieve the live video via HTTP URL, e.g. Http://<ip_address>/operator/get_video.cgi?channel=[1, 2] , where channel is to specify stream1 or stream2 RTSP port: RTSP (Real-Time Streaming Protocol) is used to control the live media streaming.

For video clip, both pre- and post-alarm are configured for 8 seconds video record.
  • Page 42 Scenario 2 A user is to define the motion detection area(s) in the camera view. When someone goes across these areas, the camera is aware of the trigger activated and starts generating video clips to the SD card. Meanwhile, an illuminator device attached to the camera will be lighted up. This detection should be activated from 22:00 to 08:00 every day.
  • Page 43 - Event of Motion Detection - Check the box to enable this event. Give a name of this event setting; e.g. MD Event (stands for Motion Detection). This is an identity of an object of event handling. Select time frame in the schedule table, for the requirement that is available from 00:00 to 08:00 every day.
