AXIS P5532 PTZ Dome Network Camera

System Options

The following traps are available:

•Cold start

•Warm start

•Link up

•Authentication failed

SNMP v3 provides encryption and secure passwords. To use traps with SNMP v3, an SNMP v3 management application is required.

To use SNMP v3, HTTPS must be enabled, see HTTPS, on page 37. To enable SNMP v3, check the box and provide the initial user password.

Note

The initial password can only be set once. If the password is lost, the Axis product must be reset to factory default, see Reset to factory default settings, on page 46.

UPnPTM

The Axis product includes support for UPnPTM. UPnPTM is enabled by default and the product is automatically detected by operating systems and clients that support this protocol.

UPnPTM can be disabled under System Options > Network > UPnPTM.

RTP/H.264

The RTP port range and multicast settings are configured under System Options > Network > RTP.

The RTP port range defines the range of ports from which the video/audio ports are automatically selected. For multicast streams, only certain IP addresses and port numbers should be used.

Select Always Multicast Video and/or Always Multicast Audio to start multicast streaming without opening an RTSP session.

Bonjour

The Axis product includes support for Bonjour. Bonjour is enabled by default and the product is automatically detected by operating systems and clients that support this protocol.

Bonjour can be disabled under System Options > Network > Bonjour.

Storage

SD card

The SD/SDHC memory card (not included) is managed on the System Options > Storage page. Click SD card to open Storage Management.

Mounting is done automatically when the card is inserted or when the product boots. SD cards are normally preformatted when purchased, but if needed, click Format to format the card.

Format an SD card so that it can be written to one of two available options — VFAT and ext4. During the formatting any previous data stored on the disk will be lost. The recommended format is ext4, due to its resilience against data loss if the card is ejected or if there is abrupt power loss. A third-party ext4 driver or application is also needed to access the file system from Windows.

Note that most SD cards are pre-formatted with vFAT when purchased. The Check Disk option is used to check for errors on the SD card and only works for the file system ext4. The Repair option repairs the SD card of errors in the file system ext4. For vFAT file system use a card reader or PC to perform card maintenance.

Note

To prevent corruption of recordings, the SD card should always be unmounted before removal.
