Appendix D - Customizing The Video Server

Modifying the File System

The Linux-based operating system and flash memory file system make it possible for advanced users and application developers to customize the AXIS 2130/2130R by adding additional files to the read-write area of the flash memory.

Important!

•Modification of the flash file system is NOT supported by Axis. In practice, this means that Axis will not answer questions relating to custom script or Web page development, but merely wishes to inform potential application developers of the possibilities afforded by the Linux-based file structure of the AXIS 2130/2130R.

•When attempting to modify the product, you may inadvertently create a problem that will require you to return the AXIS 2130/2130R to its factory default settings. At worst, you may even cause per- manent damage to the unit that renders it unusable. Consequently, Axis strongly recommends that inexperienced users DO NOT modify the file system.

Although modification of the file system is not supported, the Axis web at www.axis.com does maintain various documents designed to assist third-party development, for example, the Axis Camera API, HTTP-Interface Specification.

Configuring using FTP

As an alternative to configuring the AXIS 2130/2130R using a browser, the configuration parameters of your unit can be modified using the File Transfer Protocol (FTP).

FTP is supported by most operating environments and is a useful method for quickly downloading standard pre-configurations to one or more units.
