  • How to Set up IP Camera by Using a Macintosh Computer
    EDIMAX COMPUTER INC. Edimax IP Camera series How to set up IP Camera by using a Macintosh computer 2011 Edimax Computer 3350 Scott Blvd., Building #15 Santa Clara, California 95054, USA Phone 408-496-1105 • Fax 408-980-1530 www.edimax.us How to setup Edimax IP Camera by a Macintosh computer Introduction The most important thing to setup IP Camera is to assign a static IP address so the camera can work with your network. So far the Edimax IP Cam Admin utility is Windows based only and the program can not work for Macintosh computers. Macintosh users can follow this guide to set up Edimax IP camera. Step 1. Understand the IP address used in your network. Have your Macintosh computer operate as usual. Go into System Preferences. In System Preferences, Go to Network. Select the adapter you are using. It could be an Airport card, a third- party Wireless card, or an Ethernet Adapter. Write down the IP address, subnet mask, Router, and DNS server address. We have a usb wireless card in this example. Its IP address 10.0.1.2 told us that the IP addresses used in the network are 10.0.1.x. All the devices in the network have the first three octets the same, but the last octet number must be different. We decide to give our new camera an IP address 10.0.1.100 because no other computer device use 10.0.1.100. We temporarily disconnect the wireless adapter. You can turn off your Airport adapter if you use it to get on Internet.

[email protected] twitter: @allanjude Introduction Allan Jude ● 13 Years as FreeBSD Server Admin ● FreeBSD docs committer (focus: ZFS, bhyve, ucl, xo) ● Co-Author of “FreeBSD Mastery: ZFS” ● Architect of the ScaleEngine CDN (HTTP and Video) ● Host of BSDNow.tv & TechSNAP.tv Podcasts ● Extensive work with Puppet to manage our 100+ servers in 35 data centers in 12 countries ● Lots of work with ZFS to manage large collections of videos, extremely large website caches, and the pkg mirror for PCBSD Impetus At EuroBSDCon 2014 in Sofia, Jordan Hubbard ([email protected]) gave the opening keynote Among the recommendations for how FreeBSD could be improved and made easier to manage was to move away from the ‘one config file format per utility’ Jordan, being from Apple, suggested the binary XML plists used by launchd. I really didn’t want the “one true format” to be XML. Why is this a “Good Idea”™? ● Includes allow for more readable, structured, and upgradable config files ● Overlays separate the defaults from your site wide settings, and from your local settings (like defaults/rc.conf rc.conf rc.conf.local) ● Includes allow packages to install default settings (installing apache or nginx adds its log rotation to newsyslog) ● ● What is UCL ● UCL -- universal configuration language ● Inspired by bind/nginx style configuration file that all sysadmins know well ● Fully compatible with JSON, but more liberal in what it accepts, so users do
