Edit IP Address of a Single Camera

You can modify the IP address of a single camera if the camera status is Free or Unreachable.

  1. Select a network interface.
  2. Double-click any place in the camera row to open the Modify IP Address window.
  3. Select the Static IP, DHCP, or LLA as the IP type.
    Note:

    You can change the IP type only when the camera status is Free. And if you change the IP type, the camera will be reset to its power up state.

    Static IP

    For setting the IP type as Static IP, you can modify the IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway.

    DHCP

    The camera is set to automatically obtain an IP address. This means that the IP address will dynamically change (within a range) every time the camera or computer is restarted.

    LLA

    The camera uses a default IP address from the link-local address block. Link-local addresses for IPv4 are defined in the address block 169.254.0.0/16 in CIDR notation. In IPv6, they are assigned the address block fe80::/10.

  4. Optional: Edit the camera name in Device User ID field.
  5. Click OK to save the settings.
    Note:

    If the modified IP address conflicts with another device's IP address in the same local subnet, a prompt will pop up to remind you that IP conflict occurs. Change the IP address in this situation.
