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

Maximum number of simultaneous viewers - enter a value here to restrict the number of Motion JPEG and MPEG-4 viewers accessing the unit. This is useful if you need to save on bandwidth. Note that within the limit of 20 users, all multi- cast viewers count as 1 viewer.

Anonymous PTZ control login - allows any viewer access to the Pan/Tilt/Zoom controllers on the Live View page.

IP Address Filtering

Enable IP Address Filtering to allow or deny access to the AXIS 233D. Once enabled, the IP addresses in the list will be allowed or denied access according to the choice made in the drop-down list Allow/Deny the following IP addresses.

The administrator can add up to 256 IP address entries to the list (a single entry can contain multiple IP addresses). The users from these IP addresses need to be specified in the user list with the appropriate access rights. This is done from Setup > System Options > Security > Users.

Referrals

To prevent unauthorized clients from including the video stream from the cameras into external Web pages, check the Referrals checkbox and enter the IP address or Host name of the computer that hosts the Web pages with the included video stream. Several IP addresses/host names can be defined and are separated by semicolons (;). This option is only applicable to Motion JPEG video streams.
