Wireless
The camera is equipped with a WLAN network interface for transmitting data wirelessly in an IP network. The
network camera must be connected via a network cable for the initial configuration of all WLAN parameters.
Wireless:
Activates or deactivates the WLAN interface.
Status of wireless networks:
The camera searches the area automatically for WLAN access points (AP).
The connected access point is displayed in blue.
ESSID:
(See
below).
Mode:
(See
below).
Security:
Specifies the security method for this network.
Channel:
Shows on which channel the access point is transmitted.
Signal strength:
Display of the signal quality (in %). To ensure a good connection, this value
should not be below 60%.
Bit rate:
Shows the gross bit rate of the access point.
MAC address:
The MAC address (network device address) is determined automatically and
displayed here.
IP address:
The set IP address is displayed here. The address can be assigned
automatically (DHCP) or manually (see below).
ESSID:
ESSID is the name of the access point. This can be determined automatically
or entered manually.
Manual setting:
Indicates manual setting of the ESSID.
Mode:
Select the WLAN connection mode here.
Managed:
The network camera is connected to the network via an access point.
Ad-Hoc:
In this mode, the network camera can communicate directly with another
network adapter (network card). A peer-to-peer environment is established.
Authentication:
The encryption mode for wireless transmission can be set here.
Open
No encryption selected.
WEP
(Wired Equivalent Privacy) A 64 or 128 bit key is used for encryption (HEX or
ASCII). These keys must be the same on both devices in order to
communicate with other equipment.
(10/26 HEX characters or 5/13 ASCII characters according to bit length)
WPA-PSK / WPA2-PSK
(Wi-fi Protected Access – Pre-Shared Key) In this method, dynamic keys are
used. TKIP (Temporal Key Integrity Protocol) or AES (Advanced Encryption
Standard) can be selected as the encryption protocols. A Pre-Shared Key
must be assigned here.
(64 HEX characters or 8 to 63 ASCII characters)
Encryption:
Select the corresponding encryption type here.
WEP / deactivated
WPA-PSK / WPA2-PSK: TKIP or AES
Key length:
WEP only. Select the bit length for the key here.
Active transmit key:
WEP only. Up to four keys can be assigned.
Obtain an IP address automatically (DHCP):
The IP address, subnet mask and address for the default
gateway are obtained automatically from a DHCP server.
An activated DHCP server must be present in the network
in this case.
Use the following IP address:
Manual setting of the IP address, subnet mask and default
gateway.
Use the following DNS server address:
If the DNS server address is not assigned automatically by
a DHCP server, then it can be entered here manually.
Primary DNS server:
First server address used where the camera attempts to
convert the DNS names into IP addresses.
