Configuring and Managing the IP Camera

The Cisco Video Surveillance IP Camera provides configuration windows that you use to configure and manage the IP camera. This chapter explains how to access the configuration windows, describes each window, and provides detailed information about the options that are available in each window.

When configuring the IP camera, be aware of these guidelines:

•You must install and set up the Cisco Video Surveillance IP camera as described in Chapter 2, “Getting Started,” before you can access the configuration menus.

•You must be an IP camera administrator or an IP camera user with administrator privileges to access the configuration windows.

•For security, the configuration windows time out after 2 minutes of no activity. If a time out occurs, a pop-up window prompts you to log back in by entering your user name and password when you next press a key or click an item. When you log back in, the configuration window that you were displaying remains on your screen, but all settings revert to their last saved values.
