Administration Windows

Maintenance Window

The Maintenance window provides options for resetting or restarting the IP camera, saving configuration information from the IP camera, and uploading the configuration information to the IP camera.

Saving and uploading configuration is useful for these activities:

Configuring multiple IP cameras—If your network includes several IP cameras that should have similar configurations, you can configure one IP camera, save that configuration, and upload it to other IP cameras. Then, instead of manually configuring all options on each IP camera, you manually configure only the options that are unique, such as the IP address, if not obtained from DHCP.

Backing up configuration—If you save the configuration from the IP camera, you can upload it to the IP camera to restore the configuration if it is lost, or if you can upload it to a replacement IP camera, if needed.

To display the Maintenance window, access the configuration windows as described in the “Accessing the IP Camera Windows” section on page 2-6, click Administration, then click Maintenance.

Table 3-7describes the options in the Maintenance window.

Reset button on the IP camera, or powering the IP camera down and then

 

powering it up.

 

 

Configuration

Click the Save button to save the current IP camera configuration

 

information to a binary file.

 

When you click this button, the File Download window appears. Use this

 

window to save the configuration file. This file must include the

 

extension .cfg.

 

You can then upload this configuration information to any IP camera in the

 

network. This feature is useful for creating a backup of this configuration

 

and for configuring other IP cameras based on this configuration.
