NETWORK IP CAMERA User’s Guide

-NOTE-

IP addresses with any connection

If the camera system is connected to the Internet, IP addressing is a potential

roblem. There are two types of IP address, static and dynamic. Internet access

through an ISP (I

nternet Service Provider) usually means a dynamic IP address, and

a static IP address is much more desirable for a camera system. With a static IP

address the camera system can be located and viewed by any browser by typing the

IP address as the location to open. But dynamic IP addresses chance, so the users

will have difficulty finding the camera. When connecting to a company network, a

dynamic address can be avoided easily. When connecting via an ISP, static IP

addresses carry additional charges, if they are available at all. Alternative schemes to

'redirect' user to the camera each time the IP address changes are possible, so this

area is likely to become easier in the future.
