How to Change IP Address on Hikvision Camera224

Hikvision cameras are popular security devices used for monitoring homes, businesses, and other properties. To access and manage the camera remotely, it is important to know how to change its IP address.

The IP address is a unique identifier that allows devices to communicate on a network. It consists of four numbers separated by periods, such as 192.168.1.100. When you change the IP address of a Hikvision camera, you are essentially changing its network address.

There are several reasons why you might need to change the IP address of a Hikvision camera. For example, you may need to:
Connect the camera to a different network
Resolve IP address conflicts
Improve network security
Access the camera remotely from a new location

Changing the IP address of a Hikvision camera is a relatively simple process. You can do it either through the camera's web interface or using a software tool such as SADP (Hikvision's IP camera management tool).

Changing IP Address Through Web Interface
Open a web browser and enter the IP address of the camera into the address bar. The default IP address for Hikvision cameras is 192.168.1.100.
Enter the camera's username and password when prompted. The default username is "admin" and the default password is "12345".
Once you are logged in, go to the "Network" tab.
Select "TCP/IP" from the left-hand menu.
In the "IP Address" field, enter the new IP address you want to use for the camera.
Click the "Apply" button to save your changes.

Changing IP Address Using SADP
Download and install the SADP tool from Hikvision's website.
Open the SADP tool and click on the "Search" button.
The tool will search for all Hikvision cameras on your network.
Once the camera you want to configure is displayed, double-click on it.
In the "IP Address" field, enter the new IP address you want to use for the camera.
Click the "Apply" button to save your changes.

Once you have changed the IP address of the Hikvision camera, you will need to update the settings in any software or applications that use the camera. For example, if you are using the Hikvision iVMS-4200 software to manage your cameras, you will need to update the IP address of the camera in the software.

Changing the IP address of a Hikvision camera is a simple process that can be completed in a few minutes. By following the steps outlined in this article, you can easily change the IP address of your camera and access it remotely from a new location.
