When do I need the option Obtain an IP address
automatically using Link-Local Address (Auto IP,
169.254.xxx.yyy)?
This option is ideal for all scenarios which need a short test of the GigE cam-
era. With this method there is no need for a configuration from administra-
tor’s side.
What to do if I have no experience in configuration of
networks (DHCP/Persistent IP)?
Ask your administrator, he will do for you.
For a short test of the GigE camera use Link-Local Address (APIPA or
Auto IP). Note the disadvantage (no communication between subnets): see
Table 13: Methods of getting an IP address on page 58.
What can I do to have a simple life?
Use 2 Gigabit Ethernet network cards in your PC: one for the PC, one for the
GigE camera.
If a DHCP server is available in the same network as the GigE camera, then
there are two possibilities for configuring your Gigabit Ethernet network card
in your PC:
• Get IP address automatically
• Manually configuring of IP address (Persistent IP)
