To set up a static IP address, enter the following information in the fields provided. This information can be obtained from your network
administrator.
1. Verify that the Obtain An IP Address Automatically (DHCP) check box is not selected.
2. Enter a unique IP address (for example, 10.0.0.101). The last three digits must be different for each recorder (for example, 101, 102, 103,
and so forth).
3. Enter the subnet mask (for example, 255.0.0.0).
4. Enter the default gateway address (the IP address of the default router on your immediate network segment).
5. Click Apply.

TCP/IP PORT AND BANDWIDTH THROTTLE SETUP
The DX8100 uses the TCP/IP networking protocol to communicate over LAN and WAN networks. TCP/IP uses logical network ports to organize
data transmissions and to ensure that data packets are delivered to the proper application. For example, e-mail is traditionally delivered through
TCP/IP port 25 and web pages through port 80. The ports assigned to direct video and control information into and out of the DX8100 are listed
below in Table C.
You should keep port numbers set at their default values unless there is a known conflict with your existing network infrastructure. Consult your
network administrator before changing any port information on the DX8100. Consult your network administrator when assigning or changing the
port numbers. Make sure that ports are not blocked by a firewall.
To configure TCP/IP ports and bandwidth throttle:
1. If necessary, enter a new base port number (9002 is the default).
2. If necessary, enter a new software upgrade port (9003 is the default).
3. Drag the network bandwidth throttle slider to the desired value. (Client bandwidth can be adjusted from a minimum of 256 Kbps to a
maximum of 10 Mbps in increments of 256 Kbps.)
