Setting the Security Function —Securing setting PageDefault policy

Select the basic policy of the limit from Allow and Deny.

If you select Allow, you will basically allow access to the camera and only deny access from the computers specified on the Network address/Subnet 1 to Network address/Subnet 10 menus below.

If you select Deny, you will basically deny access to the camera, and only allow access from the computers specified on the Network address/Subnet 1 to Network address/Subnet 10 menus.

Network address/Subnet 1 to Network address/Subnet 10

Type the IP addresses and subnet mask values you want to allow or deny access to the camera.

You can specify up to 10 IP addresses and subnet mask values. For a subnet mask, type 8 to 32.

To temporarily cancel the Default Policy for a specified IP address/subnet mask, select Allow or Deny from the drop-down list on the right.

Tip

The subnet mask value represents the bit number from the left of the network address.

For example, the subnet mask value for 255.255.255.0 is 24.

If you set “192.168.0.0/24, Allow,” you can allow access from the computers having an IP address between 192.168.0.0 and 192.168.0.255.

Note

You can access the camera even from a computer having the IP address whose access right is set to Deny, if you enter the user name and password set for Level 4 access right on the authentication dialog displayed.
