5.2 Connecting the controller unit to the network
In case of a Bosch Video Recording Solution a host is an IP camera. To connect the controller
unit to the Ethernet one or two of two available iSCSI host ports must be connected to the
Ethernet. The iSCSI port connections will then be used by the IP cameras for video data
traffic.
To connect the controller unit to the network:
4 Connect the cable from the iSCSI host port of the controller unit to a port on the switch.
Note: Make sure that the iSCSI ports of the controller unit and the relevant IP camera
ports are in the same range on the switch.
