Basic Operation and Configuration
Server > LAN Settings
The page can be used to set the hostname, default gateway, and IP address for the
camera. Scroll down to see settings for Domain Name System (DNS) server and 802.1x Security.
IP Address
When set to DHCP, if the network does not have a DHCP server, the PT-Series HD camera will
default to an IP address of 192.168.0.250. To set the IP address using DNA, refer to
.
If the IP address of the camera is changed, the PC may no longer be on the same network and
therefore may not be able to access the camera until the IP address on the PC is changed also. For
that reason, it may be preferable to change the IP address after making other configuration changes.
When the LAN settings are changed and the Save button is clicked,
a pop-up message will appear to indicate the network interface
should be restarted. Once all the changes have been made and
saved, click on the Restart Network button at the bottom of the
page.
IEEE 802.1x Security
The IEEE 802.1x standard is designed to enhance the security of local area networks. The standard
provides an authentication framework, allowing a user to be authenticated by a central authority. The
PT-Series HD supports authentication using Transport Layer Security (TLS) protocol.
Notes
The camera must be connected to a switch or other device on the network that supports
IEEE 802.1x.
The camera also supports TLS for communication with clients outside the LAN, such as
web browsers. For information about enabling and configuring TLS for communication
outside the LAN, see .
