Non DHCP Server Network Environments

If your VPort 36-1MP is connected to a network that does not have a

DHCP server, then you will need to configure the IP address manually.

The default IP address of the VPort 36-1MP is 192.168.127.100 and the

default subnet mask is 255.255.255.0. Note that you may need to change

your computer’s IP address and subnet mask so that the computer is on

the same subnet as the VPort.

To change the IP address of the VPort manually, access the VPort’s web

server, and then navigate to the System Configuration  Network 

General page to configure the IP address and other network settings.

Check the Use fixed IP address to ensure that the IP address you

assign is not deleted each time the VPort is restarted.

Step 2: Access the VPort 36-1MP’s web-based manager

Type the IP address in the web browser’s address input box and then

press enter.

Step 3: Install the ActiveX Control Plug-in

A security warning message will appear the first time you access the

VPort’s web-based manager. The message is related to installing the

VPort AcitveX Control component on your PC or notebook. Click Yes to

install this plug-in to enable the IE web browser for viewing video images.
