So I have my NVR 5216-4KS2 powered online and I am viewing the main menu.... I have my camera wired up to a poe switch... and that switch is connected to my router.

Camera > Switch
NVR > switch
Switch > Router

I don't know if I need to change the cameras IP address because when I try to device search the camera nothing pops up

What should I do?

Unplug the router and try again

Am I supposed to manually add the camera since it is connected to a switch?

Ok so I clicked DHCP on clicked apply... then clicked it back off.... it gave the NVR a new ip address. I am now able to search for the ip camera.
