DHCP
The Dynamic Host Config ur a ti o n Protocol (DHCP) is a network configura ti on protocol that allows a
device to configure automatically according to the network it is connected to.
If your network supports D H CP and your MEGApix® CaaS™ camera is set to DHCP, IP Finder will
automatically find and set your MEGApix ® CaaS™ camera to correspond with your network
requirements.
Static
Static IP addresses are recommended when using a network that does not suppor t D H CP or when
setting your device to be accessed ex ternal ly via the internet. If Static is selected, you must
manually enter t he cor r ect network settings for your MEGApi x® CaaS™ camera. The settings w ill
correspond with your network. To set your camera to a static IP address, we recommend that you

change the setting s to a static IP address.
1. To set your MEGApix® CaaS™ camera to Static, highl ig ht the desired dev ice from the search
results list, and click on Configuration. In the “Network Configuration” window, make sure
Static is selected.
