VIVOTEK Network > QoS (Quality of Service) Advanced Mode Quality of Service refers to a resource reservation control mechanism, which guarantees a certain quality to different services on the network. Quality of service guarantees are important if the network capacity is insufficient, especially for real-time streaming multimedia applications. Quality can be defined as, for instance, a maintained level of bit rate, low latency, no packet dropping, etc.
PAGE 70
VIVOTEK QoS/DSCP (the DiffServ model) DSCP-ECN defines QoS at Layer 3 (Network Layer). The Differentiated Services (DiffServ) model is based on packet marking and router queuing disciplines. The marking is done by adding a field to the IP header, called the DSCP (Differentiated Services Codepoint). This is a 6-bit field that provides 64 different class IDs. It gives an indication of how a given packet is to be forwarded, known as the Per Hop Behavior (PHB).

VIVOTEK There are three types of rules: Single: This rule allows the user to add an IP address to the Allowed/Denied list. For example: 192.168.2.1 Network: This rule allows the user to assign a network address and corresponding subnet mask to the Allow/Deny List. The address and network mask are written in CIDR format. For example: IP address 192.168.2.x will be bolcked. Range: This rule allows the user to assign a range of IP addresses to the Allow/Deny List. Note: This rule is only applied to IPv4.

VIVOTEK Security > IEEE 802.1X Advanced Mode Enable this function if your network environment uses IEEE 802.1x, which is a port-based network access control. The network devices, intermediary switch/access point/hub, and RADIUS server must support and enable 802.1x settings. The 802.1x standard is designed to enhance the security of local area networks, which provides authentication to network devices (clients) attached to a network port (wired or wireless).
PAGE 82
VIVOTEK 3. When all settings are complete, move the Network Camera to the protected LAN by connecting it to an 802.1x enabled switch. The devices will then start the authentication automatically. NOTE: NOTE ► The authentication process for 802.1x: 1. The Certificate Authority (CA) provides the required signed certificates to the Network Camera (the supplicant) and the RADIUS Server (the authentication server). 2. A Network Camera requests access to the protected LAN using 802.

VIVOTEK PTZ > PTZ settings Advanced Mode This section explains how to control the Network Camera’s Pan/Tilt/Zoom operation. There are two ways to enable the function: 1. Digital: Control the e-PTZ operation. It allows users to quickly move the focus to a target area for close-up viewing without moving the camera physically. Please refer to below for detailed instruction. 2. Mechanical: Connect the Network Camera to a PTZ driver or scanner via RS485 interface.

VIVOTEK ■ Transparent HTTP Tunnel: HTTP tunnel is useful when exerting commands over the Internet. Response time can be significantly reduced. You can use UART commands to build a Transparent HTTP Tunnel. The UART commands will be sent through HTTP tunnel established between the RS485 device and the linked camera. For detailed application notes, please refer to URL Commands on page 118 or http://www.vivotek.com/downloadfiles/support/faq/172_document_2.pdf.

VIVOTEK Event > Event settings Advanced Mode This section explains how to configure the Network Camera to responds to particular situations (event). A typical application is that when a motion is detected, the Network Camera sends buffered images to an FTP server or e-mail address as notifications. Click on Help, there is an illustration shown in the pop-up window explains that an event can be triggered by many sources, such as motion detection or external digital input devices.
PAGE 91
VIVOTEK ■ Event name: Enter a name for the event setting. ■ Enable this event: Select this option to enable the event setting. ■ Priority: Select the relative importance of this event (High, Normal, or Low).

VIVOTEK Appendix URL Commands for the Network Camera 1. Overview For some customers who already have their own web site or web control application, the Network Camera/Video Server can be easily integrated through URL syntax. This section specifies the external HTTP-based application programming interface. The HTTP-based camera interface provides the functionality to request a single image, control camera functions (PTZ, output relay etc.), and get and set internal parameter values.
PAGE 117
VIVOTEK 3. General CGI URL Syntax and Parameters CGI parameters are written in lower-case and as one word without any underscores or other separators. When the CGI request includes internal camera parameters, these parameters must be written exactly as they are named in the camera or video server. The CGIs are organized in functionally-related directories under the cgi-bin directory. The file extension .cgi is required. Syntax: http:///cgi-bin/[/...]/.
PAGE 118
VIVOTEK [&…] http:///cgi-bin/operator/getparam.cgi?[] [&…] http:///cgi-bin/admin/getparam.cgi?[] [&…] Where the should be [_] or [.]. If you do not specify any parameters, all the parameters on the server will be returned. If you specify only , the parameters of the related group will be returned. When querying parameter values, the current parameter values are returned.
