new MAC link and specify the device’s MAC address

and a description. The MAC address is a 12 digit
hexadecimal (example: 0123456789AF), referred to as

a “serial number” by some vendors. For information

about how to find the MAC address for a specific
device, refer to the manual for the device in question.

For video encoder devices, specify the number of

cameras to be used with the device.

Note that you are allowed to install only the number of

cameras listed on your product license sheet. For

example, a fully used four-port video encoder counts

as four cameras even though the cameras are
connected through a single device therefore a fully

used four-port video encoder will use four licenses.
