Frequently Asked Questions
Common diagnostics questions about smart device network routing.
Why do I need my security camera IP address?
A local IP address is required to configure RTSP video streaming, connect the camera to Home Assistant, or set up Network Video Recorders (NVR) and Synology Surveillance Station.
Should IP cameras have static addresses?
Yes. Assigning a static IP or DHCP MAC reservation prevents connection loss with NVR systems whenever the camera or router reboots.
