AXIS 206 - System Options

Network - Advanced TCP/IP Settings

DNS Configuration

DNS (Domain Name Service) provides the translation of host names to IP addresses on

your network.

Obtain DNS server address via DHCP - automatically use the DNS server settings provided

by the DHCP server. Click the View button to see the current settings.

Use the following DNS server address - enter the desired DNS server by specifying the

following:

Domain name - enter the domain(s) to search for the host name used by the AXIS 206.

Multiple domains can be separated by semicolons (;). The host name is always the first part

of a Fully Qualified Domain Name, e.g. myserver is the host name in the Fully Qualified

Domain Name myserver.mycompany.com where mycompany.com is the Domain name.

DNS servers - enter the IP addresses of the primary and secondary DNS servers.

NTP Configuration

Obtain NTP server address via DHCP - check this radio button to automatically look up

and use the NTP server settings as provided by DHCP. Click the View button to see the

current settings.

Use the following NTP server address - to make manual settings, check this radio button

and enter the host name or IP address of the NTP server.

Host Name Configuration

The AXIS 206 can be accessed using a host name, instead of an IP address. The host name

is usually the same as the assigned DNS Name.

For more information, please see the online help.

Link-Local Address

This is enabled by default and assigns the AXIS 206 an additional IP address for use with

UPnP

™. The AXIS 206 can have both a Link-Local IP and a static/DHCP-supplied IP

address at the same time - these will not affect each other.

HTTP

The default HTTP port number (80) can be changed to any port within the range

1024-65535. This is useful for e.g. simple security port mapping.
