Network settings

Any changes made on the Network type section will restart the system in order to

validate the changes. Make sure every field is entered correctly before clicking on

Network type

“LAN” & “PPPoE”

The default type is LAN. Select PPPoE if using ADSL

"Get IP address automatically" & “Use fixed IP address”

The default status is “Get IP address automatically”. This can be tedious having to

perform software installation whenever the Video Server starts. Therefore, once the

network settings, especially the IP address, have been entered correctly, select “Use

fixed IP address” then the Video Server will skip installation at the next boot. The

Video Server can automatically restart and operate normally after a power

outage. Users can run IP installer to check the IP address assigned to the Video Server

if the IP address is forgotten or using the UPnP function provided by the Video Server

(MS Windows XP provides UPnP function at My Network Place). “IP address” This is

necessary for network identification.

“Subnet mask” This is used to determine if the destination is in the same subnet. The

default value is “255.255.255.0”.

“Default router” This is the gateway used to forward frames to destinations in a

different subnet. Invalid router setting will fail the transmission to destinations in

different subnet.

“Primary DNS” The primary domain name server that translates hostnames into IP

addresses.

“Secondary DNS” Secondary domain name server that backups the Primary DNS.

“Primary WINS server” The primary WINS server that maintains the database of

computer name and IP address.

“Secondary WINS server” The secondary WINS server that maintains the database

of computer name and IP address.
