should use a static IP address for your management purpose. To locate the NVR, simply
use the Search Utility with steps described in section 2.3.2
Please assign the NVR with a static IP address in your local area network. The steps of
how to assign a static IP address to your NVR are as below:
a. Choose “Static IP” from the “Connection Type” drop-down menu.
b. Enter the IP address, subnet mask, default gateway address and DNS server address
for the NVR
c. Enable “DHCP Server” under “DHCP Server” if you wish to use the NVR as a DHCP
server, or leave it disabled if there is already a DHCP server in the network
d. Click Apply for the settings to take effect.
Note: The NVR can detect the presence of a DHCP server upon startup. It sets itself to use
static IP address if there is no DHCP server currently presented in the network. Its DHCP
server function is also turned on at the same time to assign IP addresses to cameras that
are later connected to the network. You can manually turn off the DHCP server function if
you wish to use a separate DHCP server.
Note: Change the NVR’s IP address would require the NVR to restart. Restart the device
under “system Options” “Maintenance” for the settings to take effect.
