Chapter 2 Getting Started

Accessing the IP Camera Windows

To access the IP camera windows, follow these steps:

Procedure

Step 1 Start Internet Explorer and enter the following in the address field:

protocol://ip_address:port_number

where:

protocol is HTTPS for a secure connection or HTTP for a non-secure connection. You can use HTTP only if you configure the camera to accept non-secure HTTP connections as described in the “Performing the Initial Setup of the IP Camera” section on page 2-5.

ip_address is the IP address of the IP camera. The default IP address is 192.168.0.100.

port_number is the port number that is used for HTTPS or HTTP connections to the IP camera. You do not need to enter a port number if you are connecting through the default HTTPS port 443 or the default HTTP port 80.

For example,

Enter the following for a secure connection if the IP address is 192.168.0.100 and the HTTPS port number is 443:

https://192.168.0.100

Enter the following for a secure connection if the IP address is 203.70.212.52 and the HTTPS port number is 1024:

https://203.70.212.52:1024

Enter the following for a non-secure connection if the IP address is 203.70.212.52 and the HTTP port number is 80:

http://203.70.212.52

Enter the following for a non-secure connection if the IP address is 203.70.212.52 and the HTTP port number is 1024:

http://203.70.212.52:1024

Step 2 Enter your IP camera user name and password when prompted, then click OK.

To log in as the IP camera administrator, enter the user name admin (all lower case) and the password that is configured for the administrator. To log in as a user, enter the user name and password that are configured for the user.

The Main window appears and video from the IP camera starts playing automatically. You can take these actions in the Main window:

Click the Setup link to access configuration menus for the camera. For detailed information about these menus, see Chapter 3, “Configuring and Managing the IP Camera.”

Click the Home link to view and control live video from the camera. For detailed information about these actions, see Chapter 4, “Viewing Live Video.”

Click the Logout button to exit the window.

CIVS-IPC-2500, 2500 Series specifications

The Cisco Systems 2500 Series routers are a series of versatile, feature-rich networking devices designed to address the needs of various enterprises and small to medium-sized businesses. Released in the early 1990s, the 2500 Series quickly became a backbone solution for organizations seeking reliable and efficient networking capabilities.

One of the defining characteristics of the Cisco 2500 Series is its modular architecture, which allows businesses to customize their routers based on specific networking needs. This modularity accommodates various interface cards, enabling the integration of different protocols and connection types, including serial, Ethernet, and WAN interfaces. As a result, organizations can tailor their routers to support diverse applications while ensuring optimal performance.

The Cisco 2500 Series supports several advanced routing protocols, including RIP, OSPF, EIGRP, and BGP. This support provides flexibility for network design and ensures that users can implement scalable solutions as their business grows. Moreover, the routers come equipped with robust security features, including access control lists (ACLs) and support for VPNs, making them suitable for organizations that require a secure network environment.

A notable feature of the Cisco 2500 Series is its support for Quality of Service (QoS). This functionality allows organizations to prioritize certain types of traffic, ensuring that critical applications, such as VoIP or video conferencing, receive the necessary bandwidth and minimal latency. This is particularly beneficial for businesses that rely on real-time communications and need to maintain high levels of service quality.

Additionally, the implementation of Cisco’s internetworking technologies, such as IP and frame relay, enhances the overall performance and versatility of the 2500 Series routers. These technologies enable efficient data transmission and improve network reliability, which is essential for organizations with complex networking requirements.

In summary, the Cisco Systems 2500 Series routers are known for their modular design, support for multiple routing protocols, robust security features, and advanced QoS capabilities. Their ability to adapt to different networking environments makes them an ideal choice for businesses looking to enhance their connectivity and streamline their operations. Even decades after their introduction, the 2500 Series remains a relevant player in the networking market, demonstrating Cisco's commitment to providing effective solutions for diverse industries.
