requested.
Note: The default administrator user name

Accessing the AXIS 215 PTZ from the Internet
Once installed, your AXIS 215 PTZ is accessible on your local network (LAN). To access the
camera from the Internet, network routers must be configured to allow incoming traffic,
which is usually done on a specific port. Please refer to the documentation for your router
