if i had a video conferencing device why should it is
needed to configure a static IP for that,will it not work
on the local lan.

Answer Posted / nikhil maggu

Jitu adding furthermore to your part, video conferencing is
a continuous flow of voice & data packets.
Whenever u communicating with another device or person you
require an IP, here we can refer originator(source) &
terminator(destination) thing.

So whenever we do video conferencing you originate a packet
to some destination & on the same a reply / acknowledgment
is awaited from other party. So whenever reply comes it
comes to IP from which the original packet was raised.

So, if you are on LAN rather than WAN, the packet will hover
in the network but can't able to find the exact destination
if static IP(terminator) not there.

I guess static NAT(not dynamic) can also work fine as far as
my understanding with voice networks it works fine, same
should go with video also.
