i'm a little confused about the lan address listed by both blue iris and the cams software that came with my camera. under the settings of both programs the camera's lan address is listed as 192.168.149.133 or something like that. but i know for a fact that the local address for the cam is 192.168.0.16, as listed in my router settings. that's also the only address that allows me to view from the camera from all devices on the lan. what is this other address? i try to change it in the "web server" settings of blue iris but it won't let me. is the camera providing it's own address of some kind? i don't quite understand it. i've taken a couple networking class so i'm not unfamiliar with lans, wans, ip addresses and what not. i'm just kind of confused. anyone have any issue sort of like this?
thanks

edit: upon further investigation, that address does take me to the blue iris login screen. it only works when blue iris is open, but it still shows up in CMS when BI is closed. where does this address come from and what's the point when i can use the lan address listed in my router?
