6.7.1 Local Network
The Local Network page shows the camera’s current IP address and
network parameters if DHCP is enabled. It also allows you to set a static IP
address for the camera (see below), set the networking parameters, and to
select IPv4 or IPv6.
NOTE:
DHCP is enabled by default. When DHCP is enabled, the IP address
is shown under DHCP IP. Once you have completed the basic setup of the
camera, it is recommended to configure a static IP address. This will
prevent the camera IP address changing in the event of a power failure.
