Network - Advanced TCP/IP Settings
DNS Configuration
DNS (Domain Name System) provides the translation of host names to IP addresses on your
network.
Obtain DNS server address via DHCP - automatically use the DNS server settings provided
by the DHCP server. Click the View button to see the current settings.
Use the following DNS server address - enter the desired DNS server by specifying the
following:
Domain name - enter the domain(s) to search for the host name used by the AXIS
206/206M/206W. Multiple domains can be separated by semicolons (;). The host name is
always the first part of a Fully Qualified Domain Name, e.g. myserver is the host name in
the Fully Qualified Domain Name myserver.mycompany.com where mycompany.com is
the Domain name.
DNS servers - enter the IP address(es) of the primary and secondary DNS server(s).
Host Name Configuration
The AXIS 206/206M/206W can be accessed using a host name, instead of an IP address.
The host name is usually the same as the assigned DNS Name.

Link-Local Address
This is enabled by default and assigns the AXIS 206/206M/206W an additional IP address
for use with UPnP™. The camera can have both a Link-Local IP and a static/DHCP-supplied
IP address at the same time - these will not affect each other.
HTTP
The default HTTP port number (80) can be changed to any port within the range
1024-65535. This is useful for e.g. simple port mapping.
