Configuring the

NetVu Console

Setting the IP Address of the NetVu Console

• By default the unit is configured for DHCP where the unit is automatically allocated an IP address from the network DHCP server.

• As this IP address can change without notification (i.e. if there was a power failure), it is recommended that the NetVu Console is allocated a fixed IP address to remove the possibility of address change.

• If a permanent IP address is not assigned to the unit, it will attempt to contact the DHCP server every time it starts up. If for any reason, a DHCP server cannot allocate an IP address to the unit, the encoder will use a default IP address.

Webpage Configuration• The NetVu Console can be configured via a set of intuitive webpages or via

GUI menus on the Monitor.

• To access the web pages:– 1. Launch a web browser such as Internet Explorer or Mozilla Firefox

– 2. Type the IP address of the unit into the address bar.

– 3. The Network page will be displayed.
