System Options

Note

This FTP server has nothing to do with the product’s ability to transfer images via FTP to other locations and servers.

RTSP

The RTSP server running in the Axis product allows a connecting client to start an H.264 stream. The RTSP port number can be changed under System Options > Network > TCP/IP > Advanced. The default port is 554.

Note

H.264 video streams will not be available if the RTSP server is disabled.

SOCKS

SOCKS is a networking proxy protocol. The Axis product can be configured to use a SOCKS server to reach networks on the other side of a firewall or proxy server. This functionality is useful if the Axis product is located on a local network behind a firewall, and notifications, uploads, alarms, etc need to be send to a destination outside the local network (for example the Internet).

SOCKS is configured under System Options > Network > SOCKS. For more information, see the online help .

QoS (Quality of Service)

QoS (Quality of Service) guarantees a certain level of a specified resource to selected traffic on a network. A QoS-aware network prioritizes network traffic and provides a greater network reliability by controlling the amount of bandwidth an application may use.

The QoS settings are configured under System Options > Network > QoS. Using DSCP (Differentiated Services Codepoint) values, the Axis product can mark the following types of traffic: live video, live audio, event/alarm traffic and management traffic.

Note

Live audio DSCP will be equal to live video DSCP if H.264 over RTSP is used.

SMTP (email)

To send email messages from the Axis product via SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol), an SMTP mail server must be set up. This is done under System Options > Network > SMTP (email).

Enter the host names or IP addresses and port numbers for the primary and secondary mail servers in the fields provided. A From email address is also required. If the mail server requires authentication, check Use authentication to log in to this server and enter the necessary information.

SNMP

The Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) allows remote management of network devices. An SNMP community is the group of devices and management station running SNMP. Community names are used to identify groups.

The Axis product can be configured to support SNMP on the System Options > Network > SNMP page.

Depending on the level of security required, select the version on SNMP to use.

SNMP v1/v2 provides the lowest level of security. The community name can be specified as a password for read or read/write access to all supported SNMP devices. The default password for the Read community is public and the default password for the Write community is write.

Note

If HTTPS is enabled, SNMP v1 and SNMP v2c should be disabled.

Traps for SNMP v1/v2 are used by the Axis product to send messages to a management system on important events and status changes. Check Enable traps and enter the IP address where the trap message should be sent and the Trap community that should receive the message.

With resolutions reaching up to 1.3 megapixels, these cameras provide crystal-clear images even in challenging lighting conditions, thanks to the incorporation of advanced day/night functionality. The automatic switching between color mode during the day and monochrome mode at night enhances visibility, making them ideal for 24/7 monitoring in various settings.

The P3344 series utilizes progressive scan technology, which is essential for capturing fast-moving subjects without motion blur, ensuring smooth and clear video playback. This feature is particularly crucial in environments like retail spaces or public areas where swift actions need to be accurately recorded. Furthermore, Axis's proprietary Lightfinder technology allows these cameras to deliver color images in low-light situations, further expanding their range of operational capabilities.

Another key characteristic of the P3344 series is its flexibility in installation. The cameras come with a user-friendly design, allowing for easy mounting and integration into existing security systems. They support Power over Ethernet (PoE), which simplifies installation by requiring only one cable for power and data transmission, reducing the complexity of cabling during setup.

Moreover, Axis Communications emphasizes advanced security features in the P3344 series, including Motion Detection, Audio Detection, and built-in tampering alarms. These features not only enhance the camera's effectiveness in monitoring suspicious activities but also provide operational alerts to security personnel.
