Viewing Images in a Custom-designed Web Page

Simply install the AXIS 2100 directly on your local Ethernet network and complete the Installation Wizard to immediately view live video images in your own custom-designed Web page. The Wizard not only helps you define the image format and personalized characteristics of your Web page Layout, but even allows you to decide how accessible your product is over the intranet or Internet - you decide in just a few simple steps:

Often used as a Web attraction for enhancing a Web site with live images, this typical application represents the most basic form of network camera configuration. It is ideally suited for occasionally-visitedsites on both large corporate networks, and SOHO (Small-Office Home-Office) applications where a small network is installed and maintained. If you anticipate a larger audience for your images, you should consider configuring your product to upload images to an FTP server on your network, as described in Sequentially Uploading Images to a Remote FTP Server, on page 13.

Installation and Configuration Overview

Configure your AXIS 2100 for viewing images over a network as follows:

1.Connect the AXIS 2100 to your local network. Refer to Installing Your Camera on a Network, on page 20.

2.Open the Home Page in your browser and start the Installation Wizard. Complete the Wizard to establish the standard Security, Date and Time, Image General Layout and TCP/IP Network settings - selecting network as your chosen method of connection in the Modem or Network dialog. Refer to Configuring Your Camera, on page 35.

3.Your application is now complete. Having completed the Wizard, you should now verify the installation by checking that you have full access to both the images and the camera’s Web pages in your browser.

Note: You can refine your application using the Web-based Administration Tools.
