ABSTRACT:
An integrated security system operating over a network includes at least one network node coupled to the network which includes a unique identifier and a control program executable by said network node. The system further includes a network controller coupled to the network including a control program executable by the network controller which in response to a message including the unique identifier from the network node directs the network node to obtain a network configuration including a network address using one of several address assignment methods.
