Default 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.

The cameras also incorporate Sony's advanced image processing technologies, including noise reduction and automatic exposure control. These technologies enhance image quality, ensuring clear and stable footage even in challenging conditions. The SNC-CS3P variant offers additional features like Wide Dynamic Range (WDR), helping to capture details in both bright and dark areas in the same scene. This is particularly beneficial in environments with high contrast lighting.

Connectivity is another key aspect of the SNC-CS3N and SNC-CS3P. They support IP networking, allowing users to view live feeds and recordings via a web interface or compatible mobile applications. This remote access capability makes it easy to monitor premises from anywhere in the world, enhancing security and peace of mind.

Both models feature built-in motion detection, which can trigger recording and alerts, ensuring that users are notified of potential security breaches in real-time. Furthermore, the cameras support various video compression formats, including H.264 and MJPEG, optimizing bandwidth usage and storage efficiency without compromising image quality.

In terms of installation and integration, the SNC-CS3N and SNC-CS3P are designed for flexibility. They can be mounted on walls or ceilings, and their sleek, compact design ensures they blend seamlessly into their surroundings. This combination of performance, adaptability, and user-friendly features makes them a compelling choice for both residential and commercial surveillance needs.
