Using DHCP Follow the instructions below to download the IP address using
DHCP:
1. Edit or create a scope in the DHCP manager of the DHCP
daemon. The entries included in this scope should contain the
following parameters:
range of IP addresses
subnet mask
default router IP address
WINS server IP address(es) or DDNS server IP address(es)
lease duration
2. Activate the scope.
The AXIS 5600 automatically downloads the DHCP parameters.
If you are using WINS or DDNS, you should include at least one
WINS or DDNS server IP address in the DHCP scope. Immediately
after the IP address has been received, the AXIS 5600 registers its host
name and IP address on the WINS alternatively DDNS server. Refer
to Registering and Resolving Host Names, on page 27 for more
information.
The AXIS 5600 can automatically download a customized config file
from a TFTP server. Just add the name of the config file and the
TFTP servers IP address to your DHCP scope. The config file is
downloaded immediately after the AXIS 5600 receives its IP address.
Note: You do not have to restart the AXIS 5600 to download the IP
address.
