Chapter 3 Configuring and Managing the IP Camera

Security Windows

Product Process Window

The Product Process window displays the processes that occupy TCP or UDP ports, and lets you stop any of these processes.

Take care when stopping processes because some processes are required for the camera to operate properly.

Processes that you stop in this window can restart the next time that you log in to the IP camera. If you delete a required process and the camera stops functioning, exit your web browser and then log back in to the IP camera to restart the process.

To stop any process, click the Delete button that appears to the right of the process.

To make sure that the Product Process window shows the most current information, click the Refresh button.

Table 3-10describes the options in the Product Process window. All options are for display only.
