Set the following parameters as desired.
a.
Under [Network Configuration from Setup Program], select whether or not you want to allow the camera to be configured using the Setup Program on the CD-ROM.
b.
Under [Internet Connection], enter the port number to be assigned to the camera.
•
The default port number is 80, however, note that some ISPs do not allow access from the Internet using port 80. Ask your ISP or network administrator about which port numbers are available for access over the Internet.
•
Do not use the following port numbers:
–
20 and 21: used for FTP
–
6661–6667: used for IRC
•
If you are connecting multiple cameras and plan on using port forwarding to allow Internet access to the cameras, assign a different port number to each camera. We recommend using port numbers in the 50000–50050 range.
c.
Enter the IP address to be assigned to the camera.
•
Assign an IP address that belongs to the same class as other network devices (router, PCs, etc.) on the local area network. For example, if your router’s address is 192.168.0.1, you can assign an IP address between 192.168.0.2 and 192.168.0.254 as long as the assigned address is not used by another network device.
d.
Enter the appropriate subnet mask.
•
Confirm the subnet mask assigned to your router or PC. You can enter the same value here.
e.
Under [Default Gateway], enter the IP address of your router or the default gateway IP address provided by your ISP or network administrator.
f.
Under [DNS], enter the IP addresses of the primary and secondary DNS servers provided by your ISP or network administrator.
g.
Under [Max. Bandwidth Usage], select the maximum bandwidth you want to allow the camera to use.
•
This setting is effective for both IPv4 and IPv6 connections.
•
Refer to the following file size information when restricting the maximum bandwidth. Note that these are estimated file sizes; the actual file size may vary depending on image quality, image brightness, etc.
–
