Default Fixed IP address

If you are talking about the IP address of your local area network, behind your router, there are two ways to assign addresses to the devices you want to be the same after a power failure. First, configure a fixed address, rather than DHCP, in the camera, so it does not ask for an address from the router. Second, configure the router to give a specific address to the MAC address of the camera. Otherwise, after a power failure, it is first come first serve for addresses.
