Starting The Camera With An Automatic IP Address (DHCP)
If your network has a DHCP server, you can start the camera with DHCP support. In
this case, the DHCP server automatically assigns an IP address and announces it. Note
that this announcement function can be deactivated (Admin Menu > Loudspeaker and
Microphone).

emits a double sound ("boing, boing"),
which is after approx. 25 seconds. Shortly
afterwards, the camera will announce the
network parameters.
Starting the camera with an automatic IP address (DHCP) is only temporary. The
network configuration of the camera can be set to DHCP permanently under Admin
Menu > ethernet Interface.
When starting the camera with DHCP support, make sure that the network has a
functioning DHCP server. If this is not the case, the camera cannot obtain a valid IP
address and will fall back to its last IP address.
You should also make sure that the cameras always obtain the same IP addresses
by assigning the MAC addresses of the cameras to the desired IP addresses.
