Chapter II Network Connection

There are several methods to connect the camera to the network.

2.1 Setting the camera over the LAN

Connecting the camera to a switch or a router is the most common connection method. The

camera must be assigned an IP address that is compatible with its LAN.

2.1.1 Connect the camera to the PC directly

In this method, only the computer connected to the camera will be able to view the camera. The

camera must be assigned a compatible IP address to the computer. Details are shown as below

figure.

Figure 2-1 Connect the camera to the PC directly

2.1.2 Connect via a Switch or a Router

Refer to the following figure to set network camera over the LAN via the switch or router.

Connecting the network camera with static IP directly

You can also save the static IP in the camera and directly connect it to the internet without using a

router. Details are as follow.

Figure2-3 Connecting the network camera with static IP directly

Connecting the network camera via a router

Steps:

1. Connect the network camera to the router.

2. Assign a LAN IP address, the subnet mask and the gateway.

3. Save the static IP in the router.

4. Set port mapping, E.g., 80, 8000 and 554 ports. The steps for port mapping vary depending on different

routers. Please call the router manufacturer for assistance with port mapping.

5. Visit the network camera through a web browser or Milesight VMS over the internet.

Figure 2-4 Connecting the network camera via a router using static IP

2.2.2 Dynamic IP Connection

Connecting the network camera via a router

User Manual

www.milesight.com 11

Steps:

1. Connect the network camera to the router.

2. In the camera, assign a LAN IP address, the subnet mask and the gateway.

Chapter III Accessing the Network Camera

3.1 Assigning An IP Address

The camera must be assigned an IP address to be accessible. The default IP address of Milesight

network camera is 192.168.5.190. The default user name is admin, and password is ms1234.

You can either change the IP address of the camera via IPCTools or manually. Please connect the

camera in the same LAN of your computer.

3.1.1 Assigning An IP Address Using IPCTools

IPCTools is a software tool which can automatically detect multiple online Milesight network

cameras connected in the LAN, set IP addresses, and manage firmware upgrades. It’s

recommended when assigning IP addresses for multiple cameras.

Step 1: Install IPCTools (The software could be downloaded from CD.)

Step 2: Start IPCTools, and the device information including IP address, MAC address, Port number,

Netmask, and Gateway of all Milesight network cameras will be displayed. Details are

shown as Figure 3-1.

Figure 3-1

Step 3: Select a camera or multiple cameras according to the MAC address.
