System Options
Security - Users
User access control is enabled by default. An administrator can set up other users, by giving these user names and passwords. It is also possible to allow anonymous viewer login, which means that anybody may access the Live View page, as described below:
Users - the user list displays the authorized users and access levels:
•Viewer - the lowest level of access, which only allows the user access to the Live View page.
•Operator - an Operator can view the Live View page, create and modify event types and adjust certain other settings. The Operator does not have access to the Systems Options configuration pages.
•Administrator - an administrator has unrestricted access to the Setup Tools and can determine the registration of all other users.
To add a new user, click the Add... button and see the online help.
User Settings - check the relevant checkboxes to enable:
•Enable anonymous viewer login - allows any viewer direct access to the Live View page.
•Maximum number of simultaneous viewers - enter a value here to restrict the number of unicast viewers accessing the unit. This is useful if you need to save on bandwidth. (Note that all multicast viewers count as 1 viewer.)
Note: The AXIS 225FD keeps a log of all users that access it. See Logs & Reports, on page 45.
Security - IP Address Filtering
Checking the Enable IP address filtering box enables the IP address filtering function. Up to 256 IP address entries may be specified (a single entry can contain multiple IP addresses). Click the Add button to add new filtered addresses.
When the IP address filter is enabled, addresses added to the list are set as allowed or denied addresses. All other IP addresses not in this list will then be allowed or denied access accordingly, i.e. if the addresses in the list are allowed, then all others are denied access, and vice versa. See also the online help for more information.
Referrals
To prevent unauthorized clients from including the video stream from the cameras into external Web pages, check the Referrals checkbox and enter the IP address or Host name of the computer that hosts the Web pages with the included video stream. Several IP addresses/host names can be defined and are separated by semicolons (;). This option is only applicable to Motion JPEG video streams.
