36AXIS 231D+/232D+ - System Options

The administrator can add up to 256 IP address entries to the list (a single entry can contain multiple IP addresses). The users from these IP addresses need to be specified in the user list with the appropriate access rights. This is done from Setup > System Options > Security > Users.

Referrals - To prevent unauthorized sources from including the video stream from the AXIS 231D+/232D+ 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(;).

Notes: • If the referrals feature is enabled and to also allow normal access to the Live View page, the product's own IP address or host name must be added to the list of allowed referrers.

•Restricting referrers has no effect on an MPEG-4 video stream. To restrict an MPEG-4 stream, IP address filtering must be enabled.

•Restricting referrers is of greatest value when not using IP address filtering. If IP address filtering is used, then the allowed referrers are automatically restricted to those allowed IP addresses.

For greater security, the AXIS 231D+/232D+ can be configured to use HTTPS (Hypertext Transfer Protocol over SSL (Secure Socket Layer)). That is, all communication that would otherwise go via HTTP will instead go via an encrypted HTTPS connection.

Certificate - to use HTTPS for communication with the AXIS 231D+/232D+, a Certificate must be created using one of the following methods:

•A self-signed certificate can be created in the network camera, but this does not guarantee the same level of security as an official certificate.

•An official certificate issued by a CA (Certificate Authority). A CA issues and manages security credentials and public keys for message encryption.

1.Click either Create self-signed certificate or Create Certificate Request and enter the required information in the provided fields.

2.Click OK.

3.Create self-signed certificate generates and installs a certificate displayed under Installed Certificate.

Create Certificate Request generates a PEM formatted request which you copy and send to a CA for signing. When the signed certificate is returned, click Install signed certificate... to install the certificate in the AXIS 231D+/232D+.

4.Set the HTTPS Connection Policy for the administrator, Operator and Viewer to enable HTTPS connection (set to HTTP by default).

Please refer to the home page of your preferred CA for information on where to send the request. For more information, please refer to the online help files

With its pan/tilt functionality, the 232D+ can cover a wide field of view, allowing for extensive monitoring areas while maintaining high precision and responsiveness.

In addition to its impressive image quality, the Axis 232D+ features advanced digital zoom capabilities, enabling users to zoom into specific areas without significant loss of detail. The camera is equipped with a powerful infrared capability, allowing it to capture images in low-light conditions effectively. This makes it an ideal choice for 24/7 surveillance in all lighting scenarios.

On the other hand, the Axis 231D+ offers similar high-quality video performance but introduces some distinctive features. It also utilizes a 1/4-inch progressive scan CCD sensor and supports a wide dynamic range (WDR) for improved image quality in challenging lighting conditions. The 231D+ is designed for easy installation and integration into existing systems, making it a versatile option for various surveillance needs.

Both models leverage Axis' digital PTZ technology, providing users with the flexibility to pan, tilt, and zoom remotely via an intuitive web interface. This user-friendly aspect simplifies monitoring and allows quicker responses to incidents when they arise.

Furthermore, both the Axis 232D+ and 231D+ support Power over Ethernet (PoE), eliminating the need for separate power cables and simplifying installation, especially in hard-to-reach locations.

In conclusion, the Axis 232D+ and 231D+ represent Axis Communications’ commitment to delivering high-quality, versatile surveillance solutions that meet the demands of modern security challenges. Their advanced imaging technologies, robust features, and user-friendly design make them noteworthy additions to any security setup.
