I'm in the process of installing my first IP camera, an IPC-HDW5231R-ZE. I'm following the cliff notes Dahua Camera Initial Setup section as closely as I can. I was able to initialize the camera and configure the static IP for my network. I'm pretty sure I have something messed up on the network configuration but I can't figure it out. For steps 3-5 in the guide I had the camera connected directly to my NIC with a POE injector providing power. Everything worked flawlessly. After saving the network settings I unplugged from the POE injector and connected the camera to my Ubiquiti POE switch. According to the switch interface the camera is connected with an IP of 10.10.6.110 which is what I assigned it. Note, I also added the camera's MAC to the static IP map table in my router with the same IP as I entered in the camera interface. I also plugged my PC into the same switch and it is showing an address of 10.10.6.100 which I also assigned via the router static map table. The problem is I cannot connect directly to the camera at 10.10.6.110 thru the web browser. I'm not sure where to go now. I should be able to connect to the camera but I cannot.
