System options

Security

User access control is enabled by default, when the administrator sets the root password on first access. New users are authorized with user names and passwords, or the administrator can choose to allow anonymous viewer login to the Live View page, as described below:

Users - the user list displays the authorized users and access levels:

Viewer

Provides the lowest level of access, which only allows the user access to the Live View page

 

 

Operator

An Operator can view the Live View page, create and modify event types and adjust certain other

 

settings. The Operator does not have access to the Systems Options configuration pages.

 

 

Administrator

An administrator has unrestricted access to the Setup Tools and can determine the registration of all

 

other users.

 

 

User settings - check the corresponding checkboxes to enable:

Anonymous viewer login - allows any viewer direct access to the Live View page.

Anonymous PTZ control login - allows any viewer access to the Pan Tilt Zoom controls on the Live View page (if Pan/Tilt/Zoom is available).

IP address filtering

Checking the Enable IP address filtering box enables the IP address filtering function. Up to 256 IP address entries may be specified (a single entry can contain multiple IP addresses). Click the Add button to add new filtered addresses.

When the IP address filter is enabled, addresses added to the list are set as allowed or denied addresses. All other IP addresses not in this list will then be allowed or denied access accordingly, that is, if the addresses in the list are allowed, then all others are denied access, and vice versa. See also the online help for more information.

Note that users from IP addresses that will be allowed must also be registered with the appropriate access rights (User, Operator or Administrator). This is done from Setup > System Options > Security > Users.

Referrals - to prevent unauthorized sources from including the video stream from the AXIS 243SA into external Web pages, check the Referrals box and enter the IP address or host name of the computer that hosts the Web pages with the included video stream. Multiple IP addresses/host names can be defined and are separated by semicolons (;).
