the boot protocol (DHCP or static)

the static IP address

the default router

the subnet mask

the system time

Default - The default button should be used with caution. Pressing this will return all of the video server's settings to the factory default values (including the IP address)

Upgrade Server - See Upgrading the firmware, on page 53.

Backup - Click this button to take a backup of all parameters, and any user-defined scripts. It would then be possible to return to a previous configuration if settings are changed and there is unexpected behavior.

Restore - click the Browse button to locate the saved backup file (see above) and then click the Restore button. The settings will be restored to the previous configuration.

Note: Backup and Restore can only be used on the same unit running the same firmware. This feature is not intended for multi-configurations or for firmware upgrades. Otherwise you can use the Axis Camera Man- agement to download the latest firmware.
