AXIS 241Q/241S - System Options
Network Traffic
The default setting is Auto-negotiate which means that the correct speed is automatically
selected. If necessary, you can set the connection speed by selecting it from the drop-down
list.
Maximum bandwidth - Specify, in Mbit/s or kbit/s, the maximum bandwidth that the
video server is allowed to use on your network. This is a useful function when connecting
your video server to busy or heavily loaded networks. The default setting is Unlimited.
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.

SOCKS
SOCKS is a networking proxy protocol. The AXIS 241Q/241S 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 video server 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).
SMTP (email)
Enter the host names or addresses for your primary and secondary mail servers in the
fields provided, to enable event and error email messages from the video server to
predefined addresses, via SMTP.
If the mail server requires SMTP authentication, check the box for Use authentication to
log in to this server and enter the user name and password used for logging in. Several
different methods of authentication are available. See the online help for more
information.
UPnP™
The video server includes support for UPnP™ in Windows ME and Windows XP. UPnP™ is
enabled by default.
Note: UPnP™ must be installed on your workstation. 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 Ser-
vices section. Click Details and then select UPnP™ as the service to add.
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.
