44AXIS 223M - System Options

Enable/Disable - When enabled, the AXIS 223M will attempt to configure port mapping in a NAT router on your network, using UPnP™.

Use manually selected NAT router - Select this option to manually select a NAT router. Enter the IP address for the router in the field provided.

If a router is not manually specified, the AXIS 223M automatically searches for NAT routers on your network. If more than one router is found, the default router is selected.

Alternative HTTP port - Select this option to manually define an external HTTP port. Enter the port number in the field provided. If no port is entered here a port number is automatically selected when NAT traversal is enabled.

FTP

The FTP server running in the AXIS 223M enables the upload of new firmware, user applications, and so on. Check the box to enable the service.

RTSP

The RTSP protocol allows a connecting client to start an MPEG-4 stream. Enter the RTSP port number to use. The default setting is 554.

Network Traffic

Connection type - The default setting is Connection type Auto-negotiate, that is the correct speed is automatically selected. If necessary, the connection speed can be set by selecting it from the drop-down list.

Maximum bandwidth - Specify, in Mbit/s or kbit/s, the maximum bandwidth that the camera is allowed to use on the network. This is a useful function when connecting the camera to busy or heavily loaded networks. The default setting is Unlimited.

Note: When using MPEG-4 as the video format, remember that setting a maximum bandwidth value here may create problems for individual video streams if the maximum value is less than the sum of the bit rates set for the video streams.

SOCKS

SOCKS is a network proxy protocol. The camera can be configured to use a SOCKS server to reach networks on the other side of a firewall/proxy server. This functionality is useful if the camera is located on a local network behind a firewall, but notifications, uploads, and alarms, need to be sent to a destination outside the local network (such as the Internet).
