• To enable the updating of images in Microsoft Internet Explorer, you must set your browser to allow

ActiveX controls, and perform a once-only installation of the Axis ActiveX component onto your

workstation. However, if your computer environment restricts the installation of additional software,

you can alternatively set your AXIS 2100 to use a Java applet for updating the images. This is done

from Image - Settings.

• When accessing the Admin Tools for the first time in a browser, you will not be prompted for a user-

name or password. You will be assumed to be the Administrator and will automatically be logged on

as such, with the username root

and the default password pass. This root password must, however,

be changed as soon as possible, to enable the security function. Also, all Axis products are shipped

with the same password as default. For more information, see System Security, on page 24.
