QoS (Quality of Service)

QoS (Quality of Service) guarantees a certain level of a speciﬁed resource to selected trafﬁc on a network. A QoS-aware network

prioritizes netw o rk trafﬁc a nd provides a gre ate r network reliability by controlling the amount of bandwidth an application m ay use.

The QoS settings are conﬁgured under System Options > Network > QoS. Using DSCP (Differentiated Services Codepoint) values, the

Axis product can mark the fo llow ing types of trafﬁc: live v ide o, event/alarm trafﬁc and management trafﬁc.

SMTP (email)

To send email messages from the Axis pro d uct via SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol), an SMTP mail server must be set up. This

is done under System O ptions > Network > SMTP (email).

Enter the host names or IP ad dresses and port numbers for the primary and secondary mail servers in the ﬁelds provided. A From

email address is also required . If the mail server re quires authentication, check Use authentication to log in to this server and enter

the ne ces sa ry information.

SNMP

The Simple Network Manag ement Protocol (SNMP) allows remote manag ement of network devices. An SNM P community is the

group of devices and management station running SNMP. Community names are used to identify groups.

The Axis product can be conﬁgured to support SNMP on the System Options > Network > SNMP page.

Depending on the level of security required, select the version on SNMP to use.

SNMP v1/v2 provides the lowest level of security. The community name can be speciﬁed as a password for read or read/write

access to all supported SNMP devices. The default passw ord for the Read community is public and the default passw ord for the

Write community is write.

Note

If HTTPS is enabled, SNM P v1 and SNMP v2c should be disabled.

Traps for SNMP v1/v2 are used by the Axis product to send message s to a manageme nt sy

stem on im porta nt events and status

changes. Check Enable traps and enter the IP address where the trap m essage should be sent and the Trap community that

should receive the message.

The follow ing traps are available:

•Coldstart

•Warmstart

•Linkup

• Authentication failed

SNMP v3 provid es encryption and secure passw ords. To use traps with SNMP v3, an SNMP v3 management application is required.

To use SNMP v3, HTTPS must be enabled, see

HTTPS on page 34

. To enable SNMP v3, check the box and provide the initial user

password.
