5.1.6.1 LAN Select
This item allows users to select the network type among <LAN>, <PPPoE>,
and <None>. If the internet connection is a local area network communication,
please select <LAN>. If the internet connection is a broadband medium, such
as DSL Line or cable modem, please select <PPPoE>.
PPPoE stands for Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet. It is a specification
for connecting the users on an Ethernet to the Internet through a common
broadband medium.
If <None> is selected, then there is no need to set further LAN or PPPoE
settings. Therefore, the second item <LAN Setup>will be inaccessible.

DHCP
This item allows users to obtain a dynamic IP address from DHCP (Dynamic
Host Configuration Protocol) server when the DVR boots up. When using
DHCP, the settings are dynamic and will change every time the DVR power
on or off, depending on the network's setup.
If the item is enabled (ON), a dynamic IP will be assigned to
DVR-4TL/8TL/16TL. In this case, users do not need to set a static IP and the
Ethernet settings, including IP address, Netmask, Gateway, and DNS settings
will be read-only.
If the DVR is using a permanent address, disable DHC
P (OFF) to manually
set IP Address, Netmask, Gateway, and DNS. See the network system
administrators or IT personnel for appropriate values.
