You can configure network settings of a Hikvision controller on the Hikvision 26X or Hikvision 28X object's configuration panel. You can create these objects under a parent Computer object using the Settings dialog box on the Hardware tab, or it can be created automatically (refer to Setting up the Hikvision ACS connection). As an example of Hikvision controller settings, let's consider a Hikvision 26X controller.

To set network parameters for a Hikvision controller, do the following:

1. Go to the Network tab (1) on the Hikvision 26X object configuration panel.
   
2. In the Login (2) field, enter the login for the Hikvision controller.
3. In the Password field (3), enter the password for the Hikvision controller.
4. In the IP field (4), specify the IP address of the Hikvision controller.
5. In the Port field (5), specify the communication port number of the Hikvision controller.

6. In the MAC field (6), specify the MAC address of the Hikvision controller.

   The IP, Port, and MAC fields are filled in automatically if controller is added automatically.

   
   

7. In case of a successful connection, you will see detailed information on the controller in the Device information pane (7).

8. Click Apply button (8).

   The objects tree corresponding to the Hikvision controller configuration is created after you click the Apply button.

   
   

The network settings of the Hikvision controller are now complete.
