Add a network connection

You can add a second network connection using a USB network adapter.

When using a second network connection, you must connect to the isolated camera network to the built-in Ethernet port on the SEM Bridge and the network with access to the Internet to the USB network adapter.

  1. Add a definition for eth1 to the /etc/network/interfaces file.
    Address type Example definition

    Static

    #STATIC
    auto eth1
    iface eth1 inet static
    pre-up ifconfig eth1 up
    pre-up ethtool -s eth1 speed 100 duplex full autoneg on
    pre-up ethtool -K eth1 tx-tcp-segmentation off
    address 192.168.0.5
    netmask 255.255.255.0
    gateway 192.168.0.1

    Dynamic

    #DHCP
    auto eth1
    iface eth1 inet dhcp
    pre-up ifconfig eth1 up
    pre-up ethtool -s eth1 speed 100 duplex full autoneg on
    pre-up ethtool -K eth1 tx-tcp-segmentation off
  2. Connect the USB network adapter to the SEM Bridge.
