AXIS 210/211 - System Options

Link-Local Address

This is enabled by default and assigns the AXIS 210/211 an additional IP address for use

with UPnP

. The AXIS 210/211 can have both a Link-Local IP and a static/DHCP-supplied

IP address at the same time - these will not affect each other.

HTTP

The default HTTP port number (80) can be changed to any port within the range

1024-65535. This is useful for e.g. simple security port mapping.

RTSP

The RTSP protocol allows a connecting client to start an MPEG-4 stream. Enter the RTSP

port number to use. The default setting is 554.

Network Traffic

The default setting is Auto-negotiate which means that the correct speed is automatically

selected. If necessary, you can set the connection speed by selecting it from the drop-down

list.

Maximum bandwidth - Specify, in Mbit/s or kbit/s, the maximum bandwidth that the

AXIS 210/211 is allowed to use on your network. This is a useful function when

connecting the camera to busy or heavily loaded networks. The default setting is

Unlimited.

Note:

When using MPEG-4 as the video format, remember that setting a maximum bandwidth value here may
create problems for individual video streams if the maximum value is less than the sum of the bit rates set
for the video streams.

For more information, please see the online help

.

SOCKS

SOCKS is a network proxy protocol. The camera can be configured to use a SOCKS server

to reach networks on the other side of a firewall/proxy server. This functionality is useful

if the camera is located on a local network behind a firewall, but notifications, uploads,

alarms, etc., need to be sent to a destination outside the local network (e.g. to the Internet).

SMTP (email)

Enter the host names or addresses for your primary and secondary mail servers in the

fields provided, to enable the sending of event and error email messages from the camera

to predefined addresses via SMTP.
