Axis Video Server Installation Guide

The AXIS Internet Dynamic DNS Service

The AXIS Internet Dynamic DNS Service is a free service provided by Axis, which allows you to quickly and simply install your Axis Video Server, which then receives a static name (DNS name) and a dynamic IP address. More information about the AXIS Internet Dynamic DNS Service is available at www.axiscam.net

To perform this procedure, your network should have an Internet connection with no HTTP proxy, and IP addresses should preferably be assigned via DHCP.

Follow these instructions:

1.After making the connections for network and power, wait for the Status indicator to show a steady green.

2.Press the Control button once. The Status indicator flashes green while it connects to the AXIS Internet Dynamic DNS Service.

3.Wait for the Status indicator to go back to showing a steady green.

4.To complete the installation, now visit www.axiscam.net from an Internet connected computer. This must be done within 60 minutes of pressing the Control button.

5.Follow the on-screen instructions provided by the AXIS Internet Dynamic DNS Service. You will need the product’s serial number to complete the installation. See page 5. See also page 11 for instructions on how to set the password.

Important!

Please note that this procedure will send the Axis Video Server’s IP address, firmware version, product type, HTTP port and serial number to the AXIS Internet Dynamic DNS Service. No personal information is trans- ferred.

To remove the DNS name and unregister from this service, open the Setup pages in the Axis Video Server, click System Options > Network > TCP/IP > Basic, click the Settings button for the AXIS Internet Dynamic DNS Service and finally, click the Remove button.
