AXIS 215 PTZ/AXIS 215 PTZ-E - System Options

Alternative HTTP port - Select this option to manually define an external HTTP port. Enter the port number in the field provided. If no port is entered here a port number will automatically be selected when NAT traversal is enabled.

FTP - The FTP server running in the AXIS 215 PTZ/AXIS 215 PTZ-E enables the upload of e.g. new firmware, user applications, etc. Check the box to enable the service.

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-negotiatewhich means that the correct speed is automatically selected. If necessary, you can set the connection speed by selecting it from the drop-down list. 10BaseT (Half/Full Duplex), 100BaseTX (Half/Full Duplex).

Maximum bandwidth - Specify, in Mbit/s or Kbit/s, the maximum bandwidth that the AXIS 215 PTZ/AXIS 215 PTZ-E is allowed to use on your network. This is a useful function when connecting the AXIS 215 PTZ/AXIS 215 PTZ-E to busy or heavily loaded networks. The default setting is Unlimited.

Network - SOCKS

SOCKS is a networking proxy protocol. The AXIS 215 PTZ/AXIS 215 PTZ-E 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 AXIS 215 PTZ/AXIS 215 PTZ-E 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).

Network - QoS (Quality of Service)

Quality of Service (QoS) provides the means to guarantee a certain level of a specified resource to selected traffic on a network. Quality can be defined as e.g. a maintained level of bandwidth, low latency, no packet losses, etc. The main benefits of a QoS-aware network can be summarized as:

•The ability to prioritize traffic and thus allow critical flows to be served before flows with lesser priority.

•Greater reliability in the network, thanks to the control of the amount of bandwidth an application may use, and thus control over bandwidth races between applications.

The QoS in Axis network video products marks the data packets for various types of network traffic originating from the product. This makes it possible for network routers and switches to e.g. reserve a fixed amount of bandwidth for these types of traffic. The types of traffic marked by the camera are video, audio, event/alarm and management network traffic.

QoS DSCP Settings

For each type of network traffic supported by your Axis network video product, enter a DSCP (Differentiated Services Codepoint) value. This value is used to mark the traffic’s IP header. When the marked traffic reaches a network router or switch, the DSCP value in the IP header tells the router or switch which type of treatment to apply to this type of traffic, for example, how much bandwidth to reserve for it.

Note that DSCP values can be entered in decimal or hex form, but saved values are always shown in decimal. For more information on Quality of Service, please see the Axis support web at www.axis.com/techsup

Network - SMTP (email)

Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) - enter the host names or addresses for your primary and secondary mail servers in the fields provided to enable event and error email messages from the AXIS 215 PTZ/AXIS 215 PTZ-E to predefined addresses, via SMTP.
