SNMP

The Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) allows remote management of network devices. Depending on the level of security required, select the version of SNMP to use. The three levels of security are:

SNMP V1 - includes no security.

SNMP V2c - uses very simple security. The community name can be specified as a pass- word for read or read/write access to all supported SNMP objects. The community is the the group of network devices using SNMP.

SNMP V3 - provides encryption and secure passwords. HTTPS must be enabled.

UPnP™

The camera includes support for UPnP, which is enabled by default. If also enabled on your computer, the camera will automatically be detected and a new icon will be added to “My Network Places.”

Note: UPnP must also be enabled on your Windows XP or ME computer. To do this, open the Control Panel from

the Start Menu and select Add/Remove Programs. Select Add/Remove Windows Components and open the Networking Services section. Click Details and then select UPnP as the service to add.

RTP / MPEG-4

These settings are the port range, IP address, port number (video and audio), and Time-To-Live value to use for the video stream(s) in multicast MPEG-4 format. Only certain IP addresses and port numbers should be used for multicast streams. For more information, please see the online help.

Bonjour

The AXIS 207MW includes support for Bonjour. When enabled, the camera is automatically detected by operating systems and clients that support this protocol.

Ports & Devices

I/O Ports - the pinout, interface support and the control and monitoring functions provided by this connector are described in The I/O Terminal Connector, on page 39.

LED Settings

The Status indicator LED on the front of the camera can be set to flash at a configurable interval (or to not light up at all) whenever the unit is accessed. For a listing of all LED behavior, see page 8, or the online help.

Note: The LED does not flash when the stream is retrieved using MPEG-4 multicast.
