EZN Plus Series

5.2Connecting the Camera to the Network

There are three methods to connect the IP camera to the network: Router or LAN Connection, Direct High-Speed Connection and One-to-One Connection.

Router or LAN connection

This is the most common connection in which the IP camera is connected to a router and allows multiple users on and off site to see the IP camera on a LAN/WAN (Internet). The camera must be assigned an IP address that is compatible with its LAN. By setting up port forwarding on the router, you can remotely access the cameras from outside of the LAN via the Internet. To remotely access the Web interface of the IP camera, please refer to 7.3.2 DDNS. To set up port forwarding, please consult the manual of the router.

Straight-through LAN patch cable

Right: Pinout of a straight-through cable.

EZN Plus Series

Direct High-Speed Connection

In a Direct High-Speed Connection, the camera connects directly to a modem without the need for a router. You need to set the static or dynamic WAN IP address assigned by your ISP (Internet Service Provider) in the camera’s configuration web pages. To access the camera, just type “http://xxx”, where xxx is the IP address given by your ISP. If you have a dynamic IP address, this connection may require that you use DDNS for a reliable connection. Please refer to 7.3.2 DDNS.

One-to-One Connection (Directly from PC to IP Camera)

You can connect directly without using a switch, router or modem. However, only the PC connected to the camera will be able to view the IP camera. You will also have to manually assign a compatible IP address to both the computer and the IP camera. Unless the PC has another network connection, the IP camera will be the only network device visible to the PC. See the diagram below:

Right: Pinout of a crossed-over cable.
