Network Settings for Video Device Section
The Network Settings for Video Device section contains the following fields:
Field
Description
IP-address
-or-
DNS Host
Name
IP address or DNS host name of the device in question.
Note: If Use DNS host name check box is selected, the name
of the IP-address field changes to DNS/Host Name in order to
accommodate a DNS host name rather than an IP address.
Use DNS
host name
By selecting the check box you are able to use a DNS host
name for identifying the device instead of using the device's
IP address. When the check box is selected, the IP-address
field changes its name to DNS/Host Name, ready to
accommodate a DNS host name rather than an IP address.
Default
Http Port
When selected, HTTP traffic to the device will go through the
default port, port 80. If you want to use another port for HTTP
traffic to the device, clear the check box, and specify required
port number in the field to the left of the check box.
Default Ftp
Port
When selected, FTP traffic to the device will go through the
default port, port 21. If you want to use another port for FTP
traffic to the device, clear the check box, and specify required
port number in the field to the left of the check box.
Root
Password
Password required in order to log in to the device using the
root account (occasionally known as an admin or
administrator account).
Note: The number of settings available in the Camera Settings for [Device Name] window may be
limited if cameras are not PTZ (Pan/Tilt/Zoom) cameras or connected to a video encoder device.
The Camera Settings for [Device Name] window lets you specify certain information about a device's
cameras. This is primarily interesting for PTZ cameras and cameras attached to a video encoder
device.
