encoded username and password. There are 3 types of usernames, namely admin, operator and user. Available APIs are
different for each username. Join the user name and the password using a colon, Base64 encode this character string and
enter this in the Authorization line.
For example, when
User name admin
Password jvc
then the character string joining the user name and the password with a colon is:
admin:jvc
Base64 encoding of this string yields YWRtaW46anZj. Enter this in the Authorization line. Default password is as
follows. Password of VN-V685 and VN-V686B are different from VN-V686.
VN-V686
username default password
admin vn-v686
operator vn-v686
user vn-v686
VN-V685 and VN-V686B
username default password
admin jvc
operator jvc
user jvc
3) VN-V685/686/686B returns a response to the client. In the following example, current subnet mask is 255.0.0.0. In
addition, 255.0.0.0 is followed by & and 200 OK, indicating that getting parameter is successful.
Example of VN-V685
HTTP/1.1 200 OK<CRLF>
Connection: close<CRLF>
Content-Length: 80<CRLF>
Content-type: text/plain<CRLF>
Date: Fri, 13 MAY 2005 08:33:12 GMT<CRLF>
Server: JVC VN-V685 API Server<CRLF>
network.interface.subnetmask=255.0.0.0&200 OK<CRLF>
4) The client disconnects TCP80 to end the use of API.
Note: APIs for getting/setting parameters are not restricted by the access restriction function.
