AXIS M7010 System Options If using a host name for the NTP server, a DNS server must be configured. See DNS Configuration, on page 33. • Set manually allows you to manually set date and time. If using an NTP server, select your Time zone from the drop-down list. If required, check Automatically adjust for daylight saving time changes. The Date & Time Format Used in Images is the date and time format displayed as a text overlay in the video stream. Use the predefined formats or see File Naming & Date/Time Formats in the online help for information on how to create custom date and time formats. To include date and time in the overlay text, go to Video and select Include date and Include time. Network Basic TCP/IP Settings The Axis product supports IP version 4 and IP version 6. Both versions can be enabled simultaneously, and at least one version must always be enabled. IPv4 Address Configuration By default, the Axis product is set to use IPv4 (IP version 4) and to obtain the IP address automatically via DHCP. The IPv4 settings are configured under System Options > Network > TCP/IP > Basic. DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) allows network administrators to centrally manage and automate the assignment of IP addresses. DHCP should only be enabled if using dynamic IP address notification, or if the DHCP can update a DNS server. It is then possible to access the Axis product by name (host name). If DHCP is enabled and the product cannot be accessed, run AXIS IP Utility to search the network for connected Axis products, or reset the product to the factory default settings (see page 39) and then perform the installation again. To use a static IP address, check Use the following IP address and specify the IP address, subnet mask and default router. IPv6 Address Configuration If IPv6 (IP version 6) is enabled, the Axis product will receive an IP address according to the configuration in the network router. To enable IPv6, go to System Options > Network > TCP/IP > Basic. Other settings for IPv6 should be configured in the network router. ARP/Ping The IP address can be set using ARP and Ping. For instructions, see the product's Installation Guide. ARP/Ping is enabled by default. To disable, uncheck the box under System Options > Network > TCP/IP > Basic. The ARP/Ping service is automatically disabled two minutes after the product is started, or as soon as an IP address is set. To reset the IP address, the product must be restarted to activate ARP/Ping for an additional two minutes. Pinging the product is still possible when this service is disabled. AXIS Video Hosting System (AVHS) AVHS used in conjunction with an AVHS service, provides easy and secure Internet access to live and recorded video accessible from any location. For more information and help to find a local AVHS Service Provider go to www.axis.com/hosting AVHS is enabled by default. The settings are configured under System Options > Network > TCP IP > Basic. One-click enabled - Press the product's control button (see Hardware Overview, on page 4 ) to connect to an AVHS service over the Internet. Once registered, Always will be enabled and the Axis product stays connected to the AVHS service. If the product is not registered within 24 hours from when the button is pressed, the product will disconnect from the AVHS service. 32
