If a DHCP server is available on the
network, you can use this to assign
an IP address, DNS server addresses
and a host name to the AXIS 292. To
see the current settings, click the
View buttons. The network settings
can also be configured manually as
follows:
IP Address Configuration
IP Address - Specify a unique IP
ad
dress for the AXIS 292. To check if
the specified IP address is available,
click the Test button.
Subnet Mask - Specify the subnet
mask for the subnet
the AXIS 292 is
located on.
Default Router - The default router
(Gat
eway) used for connecting to
other networks and network
segments.
DNS configuration
Domain Name - When using a host name that is not fully qualified
(see below), enter the domain(s) in which
to search for the host name used by the AXIS 292. Multiple domains can be separated by semicolons (;)
Primary/Secondary DNS Server - This specifies the IP address(es) of the server(s)
that normally provide the
translation of domain names to IP addresses on your network.
Note:
If no DNS server is available, the address for e.g. a video source must be an IP address.
Host Name Configuration
Host Name - If you are running a DNS server on your network
and wish to connect to the AXIS 292 using a
name, enter the product’s host name here. The host name is usually the same as the assigned DNS Name. A
host name is always the first part of a Fully Qualified Domain Name and is always one word, with no period.
For example, myserver is the host name in the Fully Qualified Domain Name myserver.axis.com.
HTTP
Port number - The AXIS 292 will use the HTTP port entered
here. The default setting is 80. Alternatively, any
port in the range 1024-65535 may be used, but check first with your network administrator before changing
the default setting.
Alarm
Alarm Port - This is the port the AXIS 292 will use for incoming alarm
events. The default setting is 2048.
Any port in the range 1024-65535 may be used, but check with your network administrator before changing
the default setting.
