AXIS 2130/2130R User’s Manual Customizing The Video Server 31

Custom Web Pages

The AXIS 2130/2130R contains a re-writable flash memory file system that allows some directories and files to be changed by the root user, using FTP. This strictly non-supported product functionality, makes it possible for advanced users and application developers to add their own Web pages, scripts, and other files to the Axis product.

Customizing Procedures

The existing Administration pages are stored in a compressed read-only area of the file system. If you intend to try changing them you must adhere strictly to the instructions provided here and ensure that you DO NOT inadvertently change any files other than those featured in this section. Failure to comply with this notice may render your product unusable.

All files stored in the /etc/httpd/html directory are available through the product Web server in the virtual directory /local/. The URL to resident pages in the /etc/httpd/html directory is http://IP/local/<filename>.htm.

Editing and Storing Your Web pages

Follow the instructions below to create and save customized pages to the AXIS 2130/2130R:

1.Using a html editor, create your html file and store it on your local PC hard drive.

2.Now use ftp to upload the file to the AXIS 2130/2130R. Enter the following on the command line:

ftp <server ip address >

Example!

ftp 172.21.1.200

3.Log on as root with the root password pass.

4.Change to the correct directory within the AXIS 2130/2130R by entering the following command:

cd /etc/httpd/html

5.For binary storage of the files (not absolutely necessary, but good practice), type bin.
