1.2
Establishing the connection
The camera must have a valid IP address to operate on your 
network and a compatible subnet mask. By default, DHCP is 
pre-set at the factory to ON and so your DHCP server assigns an 
IP address. With no DHCP server the default address is 
192.168.0.1
1.
Start the Web browser.
2.
Enter the IP address of the camera as the URL. 
3.
During initial installation, confirm any security questions 
that appear.
Note:
If you do not connect, the camera may have reached its 
maximum number of connections. Depending on the device and 
network configuration, each camera can have up to 25 web 
browser connections, or up to 50 connections via Bosch Video 
Client or Bosch Video Management System.
1.2.1
Password protection in camera
A camera offers the option of limiting access across various 
authorization levels. If the camera is password-protected, a 
message to enter the password appears. 
1.
Enter the user name and the associated password in the 
appropriate fields.
2.
Click OK. If the password is correct, the desired page is 
displayed.
1.3
Protected network
If a RADIUS server is used for network access control (802.1x 
authentication), the camera must be configured first. To 
configure the camera, connect it directly to a computer using a 
network cable and configure the two parameters, Identity and 
Password. Only after these have been configured can 
communication with the camera via the network occur.
