If the controls for a PTZ unit and/or the Trigger Event button are displayed on the
application page, then a user with viewing rights will also be able to use these.

Options, that is, he/she can add and edit settings for event types, upload servers, audio
and video, etc.
•
Administrator
- An Administrator has unrestricted access to the whole camera and can
determine the registration of all other users.

Firewall Settings
The built-in firewall protects the AXIS 230 against unauthorized access. To restrict access,
add IP addresses to the list of allowed addresses - other addresses will not be permitted
access.
Enable/Disable Firewall -
Click this button to enable or disable the firewall function.
Allowed IP Addresses -
This list box shows the currently configured IP addresses.
Adding Allowed IP Addresses
IP Address -
Add a single IP address or a whole range of addresses. This last option can be
useful if you have a large number of IP addresses that all need access to the camera. To add
a range of addresses, type e.g. 192.168.0.* This will add all the addresses in the range
192.168.0.0 to 192.168.0.255. Up to 256 allowed IP addresses can be specified.
