Dynamic IP Address:
Having a dynamic IP address means that the IP
address for the camera can change depending on how the network
router assigns addresses to network devices. By default, the camera is
in Dynamic IP Address mode and will attempt to get an IP address from
a DHCP server. If this attempt fails, the camera will automatically assign
itself an IP address, listed under Static IP Address.
Static IP Address:
Having a static IP address means that the IP
address for the camera will not change once assigned.
PPPoE:
In some rare cases, the camera may be connected over the
Internet. The most effective way to do this is with Power over Ethernet,
using an Ethernet cable to both power the camera and provide a
network connection.
To change the connection type:
1. Click the appropriate
connection type.
2. If needed, designate the specific addresses.
3. Click
Apply.
DNS allows the setup of a Domain Name Service for the camera, which
will connect to the DNS server when there is a situation requiring a
domain name to send data to. The most common application for DNS is
the ftp or e-mail server in the Event Handler section.
You can establish both a primary and secondary DNS server address.
