AXIS 216FD/FD-V/MFD/MFD-V - Accessing the Camera

Setting the Password

1. When accessing the camera for the first

time, the ‘Configure Root Password

dialog will be displayed on the screen.

2. Enter a password and then re-enter it, to

confirm the spelling. Click OK.

3. The ‘Enter Network Password’ dialog

will appear. Enter the User name: root

Note: The default administrator user name root is permanent and cannot be

deleted.

4. Enter the password as set in step 2 above, and click OK. If the password is lost,

the camera must be reset to the factory default settings. See page 46.

5. If required, click Yes to install the AXIS Media Control (AMC). You will need

administrator rights on the computer to do this.

Accessing the camera from the Internet

Once connected, the camera is accessible on your local network (LAN). To access the

camera from the Internet you must configure your broadband router to allow incoming

data traffic to the camera. To do this, enable the NAT-traversal feature, which will attempt

to automatically configure the router to allow access to the camera. This is enabled from

Setup > System Options > Network > TCP/IP Advanced.

For more information, please see NAT traversal (port mapping) for IPv4, on page 40. See

also the AXIS Internet Dynamic DNS Service at www.axiscam.net or, for Technical notes

on this and other topics, visit the Axis Support Web at www.axis.com/techsup
