In this menu, you can configure an IP camera as a device in the LAN with a
unique name and IP address. To ensure that the images recorded by the IP
camera can be displayed in the appropriate resolution on SIP system
telephones and in the CTI application, you must set up a separate URL for
each device type and for the application. The URL consists of a base part and
an individual device part (see also the chapter entitled
“IP cameras” configuration page

Hints and Examples of URL Notation
for IP Cameras
Camera images are accessed via the “HTTP” protocol by default and
optionally via the secure “HTTPS” transfer protocol. No other protocols are
supported.
Determining the URL of the IP camera
It is vital that the documentation provided by the manufacturer is referred to
when determining the URL for an IP camera. Specific information about the
internal directory structure of the device and the file names of the camera
images is required. The relevant user name and password are also required to
access the IP camera via login.
