System Options

System Overview

To get an overview of the Axis product’s status and settings, go to System Options > Support > System Overview. Information that can be found here includes firmware version, IP address, network and security settings, event settings, image settings and recent log items. Many of the captions are links to the proper Setup page.

Logs & Reports

The System Options > Support > Logs & Reports page generates logs and reports useful for system analysis and troubleshooting. If contacting Axis Support, please provide a valid Server Report with your query.

System Log - Provides information about system events.

Access Log - Lists all failed attempts to access the product. The Access Log can also be configured to list all connections to the product (see below).

Server Report - Provides information about the product status in a pop-up window. The Access Log is automatically included in the Server Report.

You can view or download the server report. Downloading the server report creates a .zip file that contains a complete server report text file in UTF–8 format. Select the Include snapshot with default image settings option to include a snapshot of the product’s Live View. The server report .zip file should always be included when contacting support.

Parameter List - Shows the product's parameters and their current settings. This may prove useful when troubleshooting or when contacting Axis Support.

Connection List - Lists all clients that are currently accessing media streams.

Crash Report - Generates an archive with debugging information. The report takes several minutes to generate.

The log levels for the System Log and the Access Log are set under System Options > Support > Logs & Reports > Configuration . The Access Log can be configured to list all connections to the product (select Critical, Warnings & Info).
