To ensure that the login procedure is performed as securely as possible when using
SMTP authentication, you must define the weakest authentication method allowed.
-
Login Method: Set the Weakest method allowed to the highest/safest method
supported by the mail server. The most secure method is listed in the drop-down list:
Login / Plain
• SMTP(E-Mail) Receiver
-
Receiver: Enter an email address. You can also register the e-mail address of recipients up
to 8.
• SMTP(E-Mail) Test
- Receiver: Enter an email address and click the Test button to test that the mail servers are
functioning and that the email address is valid.
FTP & JPEG
When the network camera detects an event, it can record and saves images to an FTP server. Images
can be sent as e-mail attachments. Check the box to enable the service.
• FTP Setting
-
Server: Enter the server's IP address or host name. Note that a DNS server must be
specified in the TCP/IP network settings if using a host name.
-
Port: Enter the port number used by the FTP server. The default is 21.
-
Use passive mode: Under normal circumstances the Network Camera simply requests the
target FTP server to open the data connection. Checking this box issues a PASV command to
the FTP server and establishes a passive FTP connection; whereby the Network Camera
actively initiates both the FTP control and data connections to the target server. This is
normally desirable if there is a firewall between the camera and the target FTP server.
