2.4.1 Network Connection & IP assignment The network camera is designed for use on an Ethernet network and requires an IP ad- dress for access. Most networks today have a DHCP server that automatically assigns IP addresses to connected devices. By the factory default, your camera is set to obtain the IP address automatically via DHCP server.
3 Operation The network camera can be used with Windows operating system and browsers. The rec- ommended browsers are Internet Explorer, Safari, Firefox, Opera and Google Chrome with Windows. NOTE: To view streaming video in Microsoft Internet Explorer, set your browser to allow ActiveX controls.
3.2 Access from the internet Once connected, the network camera is accessible on your local network (LAN). To access the network camera from the Internet you must configure your broadband router to allow incoming data traffic to the network camera. To do this, enable the NAT traversal feature, which will attempt to automatically configure the router to allow access to the network cam- era.
