System Information and Configuration
Select the system icon (the computer symbol) in the left pane to display current system information which may be
required when documenting Genie installations. There are no user changeable fields in the System Information tab.
In the right hand pane click on the System Configuration tab. By default the Sapera GigE Server is added to the
Windows Firewall exception list. This function is performed automatically when the Genie software package is
installed. This ensures the Windows Firewall remains active (if it was enabled) without having to individually put
each Genie application program in the exception list.
System Firewall Configuration
If the computer is using a different firewall software package, refer to that firewall's software manual to allow the
Sapera GigE Server to have access through it.
Alternatively, it is possible to exclude a specified NIC from using the firewall. The NIC dedicated to the Genie
camera does not need Windows firewall. See
" on page 107
for details on excluding a
NIC from firewall settings.
