First access to NetworKam

When connecting to NetworKam for the first time, administrators should check users and network settings on the configuration page. For complete protection from illegal usage, NetworKam provides three privileges and always needs user name and password before access. The lowest level is DEMO mode whose services are subject to administrator's permission. The standard level is the USER mode that consists of twenty user profiles. Each user is able to access NetworKam, except for system configuration. The twenty user profiles are also maintained by the administrator. The highest level is ROOT mode that only opens to administrators for initial setup, system configuration, users administration and software upgrade. The user name of the administrator is internally assigned to “root”.

When connecting to NetworKam, users will be requested for user name and password by an authentication message window. A root password, identical to the NetworKam's serial number, is needed for the initial access to a newly installed NetworKam. The administrator must change the root password immediately after the initial installation to ensure security. The new root password should be well memorized since there is no way to retrieve or recover it. After changing the password, the browser will display an authentication window again to ask for the new password.

The other important part is network settings. The software configuration above makes NetworKam easily accessed through local networks. However administrators should review the network settings on the configuration page according to the existing service. The safe and easy way is to compare the network settings with another PC or workstation in the same network.

The software installation in the previous section only set the host IP address and default subnet mask as 255.255.255.0. Administrators should change the subnet mask if it differs from the one provided by the server. Administrators should also fill in the default gateway, primary and secondary domain name servers if necessary.

By default NetworKam will need administrator's installation every time it reboots. If the network settings are sure to work all the time, disable the install option if this IP address is already reserved for this

IP2111, IP2121 specifications

Vivotek, a renowned leader in the IP surveillance industry, has a diverse range of IP cameras designed for various security applications. Among these, the Vivotek IP2121 and IP2111 stand out due to their advanced features, robust technologies, and reliable characteristics.

The Vivotek IP2121 and IP2111 are both designed for high-quality video surveillance. The IP2121 features a 1-Megapixel sensor capable of delivering stunningly clear images with a resolution of 1280 x 800 pixels. This ensures that every detail is captured, whether during the day or night. On the other hand, the IP2111 is equipped with a similar sensor but focuses on delivering a more compact and cost-effective solution for users who require less intensive surveillance needs. Both models support H.264 compression technology, which significantly reduces file sizes without compromising image quality, thereby optimizing bandwidth usage and storage space.

One of the important aspects of both cameras is their superior low-light performance. The Vivotek IP2121 is designed with a day/night function, which automatically switches from color to monochrome mode when light levels drop, ensuring clear images even in challenging lighting conditions. This feature is complemented by WDR (Wide Dynamic Range) technology, which enhances image quality in scenes with high contrast between light and shadow.

Both models boast a weather-proof IP66 rating, making them suitable for outdoor installations. This feature protects the cameras against rain, dust, and other harsh environmental conditions. The cameras are also powered over Ethernet (PoE), allowing for easy installation without the need for additional power supplies.

In terms of monitoring capabilities, the Vivotek IP2121 and IP2111 support multiple streaming formats, ensuring compatibility with various video management systems (VMS). They come with built-in motion detection capabilities, which can trigger alerts and notifications when suspicious movement is detected.

The user-friendly interface of Vivotek's software ensures that setting up and managing the cameras is straightforward. These features, coupled with the ability to easily integrate with other Vivotek devices, provides a comprehensive surveillance solution.

Overall, the Vivotek IP2121 and IP2111 represent reliable choices for users seeking efficient, high-quality surveillance systems that combine advanced technology with durability, making them perfect for both residential and commercial applications.
