AXIS 212 PTZ/AXIS 212 PTZ-V- System Options
35
The QoS in Axis network video products marks the data packets for various types of network traffic originating
from the product. This makes it possible for network routers and switches to for example, reserve a fixed
amount of bandwidth for these types of traffic. The following types of traffic are marked:
• live video
• live audio
• event/alarm traffic
• management network traffic
QoS Settings
For each type of network traffic supported by
your Axis network video product, enter a DSCP (Differentiated
Services Codepoint) value. This value is used to mark the traffic’s IP header. When the marked traffic reaches a
network router or switch, the DSCP value in the IP header tells the router or switch which type of treatment to
apply to this type of traffic, for example, how much bandwidth to reserve for it.
Note that DSCP values can be entered in decimal
or hexadecimal form, but saved values are always shown in
decimal.

servers in the fields provided, to enable
the sending of notifications and image/video email messages from the camera to predefined addresses via SMTP.
If your mail server requires authentication, check the box for Use authentication

SNMP
The Simple Network Managemen
t Protocol (SNMP) allows remote management of network devices. Depending
on the level of security required, select the version of SNMP to use. The three levels of security are:
• SNMP V1 - includes no security.
• SNMP V2c - uses very simple security. The community
name can be specified as a password for read or
read/write access to all supported SNMP objects. The community is the group of network devices using
SNMP.
• SNMP V3 - provides encryption and secure
passwords. HTTPS must be enabled.
UPnP™
The camera includes support for UPnP
™, which is enabled by default. If also enabled on your computer, the
camera will automatically be detected and a new icon will be added to “My Network Places.”
Note:
•UPnP must also be enabled on your Windows XP or ME computer. 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 / MPEG-4
These settings are the port range, IP address, port
number (video and audio), 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.
Bonjour
The AXIS 212 PTZ/AXIS 212 PTZ-V includes support for Bonjour. When
enabled, the camera is automatically
detected by operating systems and clients that support Bonjour.
