AXIS 207W/AXIS 207MW - Accessing the Camera
Setting the Password
1. When accessing the camera for the first
time, the ‘Configure Root Password’
dialog will be displayed on the screen.
2. Enter a password and then re-enter it, to
confirm the spelling. Click OK.
3. The ‘Enter Network Password’ dialog
will appear. Enter the User name: root
Note: The default administrator user name root is permanent and cannot be
deleted.
4. Enter the password as set in step 2 above, and click OK. If the password is lost,
the camera must be reset to the factory default settings. See page 37.
5. If required, click Yes to install the AXIS Media Control (AMC). You will need
administrator rights on the computer to do this.
Accessing the camera from the Internet
Once installed, the camera is accessible on your local network (LAN). To access the camera
from the Internet you must configure your broadband router to allow incoming data traffic
to the camera. To do this, enable the NAT-traversal feature, which will attempt to
automatically configure the router to allow access to the camera. This is enabled from
Setup > System Options > Network > TCP/IP Advanced.
For more information, please see NAT traversal (port mapping) for IPv4, on page 30. See
also the AXIS Internet Dynamic DNS Service at www.axiscam.net or, for Technical notes
on this and other topics, visit the Axis Support Web at www.axis.com/techsup
