AXIS 225FD - System Options
Note: When using MPEG-4 as the video format, remember that setting a maximum bandwidth value here may
create problems for individual video streams if the maximum value is less than the sum of the bit rates set
for the video streams.
For more information, please see the online help .
Network - SOCKS
SOCKS is a network proxy protocol. The camera can be configured to use a SOCKS server
to reach networks on the other side of a firewall/proxy server. This functionality is useful
if the camera is located on a local network behind a firewall, but notifications, uploads,
alarms, etc., need to be sent to a destination outside the local network (e.g. to the Internet).
Network - SMTP (email)
Enter the host names or addresses for your primary and secondary mail servers in the
fields provided, to enable the sending of event and error email messages from the camera
to predefined addresses via SMTP.
Network - SNMP
The Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) allows the remote management of
network devices. Select the version of SNMP to use, depending on the level of security
required. HTTPS should be enabled when setting the password for SNMPv3.
Network - UPnP™
The camera includes support for UPnP, which is enabled by default. If also enabled on
your computer, the camera will automatically be detected and a new icon will be added to
“My Network Places.”
Note: UPnP must also be enabled on your Windows XP or ME computer. To do this, open the Control Panel from
the Start Menu and select Add/Remove Programs. Select Add/Remove Windows Components and open
the Networking Services section. Click Details and then select UPnP as the service to add.
Network - RTP (Multicast)/MPEG-4
These settings are the IP address, port number, and Time-To-Live value to use for the video
stream(s) in multicast MPEG-4 format. Only certain IP addresses and port numbers should
be used for multicast streams. For more information, please see the online help.
Ports & Devices
I/O Ports
The two alarm inputs and one output on the AXIS 225FD can be connected to various
external devices, e.g. door sensors and alarm bells. The name given to the ports can be
changed and state of the I/O ports can be set to Open circuit or Closed circuit.
