FTP
FTP notification will save files on the specified FTP server.
> Mark ENABLE checkbox to set the FTP server.
> Mark ENABLE USE(SMTP) AUTHENTICATION checkbox if the mail server requires
authentication.
> RECEIVER LIST : Enter the recipient’s email addresses as the receivers.
> E-MAIL(SMTP) TEST : Enter the recipient's email address in RECEIVER and click
the TEST button to test if the mail servers are functioning and the email address is
valid.
• USER NAME : Enter the user name as provided by the network administrator.
• PASSWORD : Enter the password as provided by the network administrator.
• LOGIN METHOD : Select one for SMTP authentication method allowed.
• SERVER : Enter the IP address or host name of the specific FTP server.
• 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 network
camera and the target FTP server.
• PORT : Enter the port number used by the FTP server. The port number can be
adjusted in the range 1-65535. The default setting is 21.
[ NOTE ]
If a PLAIN or LOGIN mechanism is negotiated, the camera sends the user name
and password to the SMTP server. The LOGIN mechanism is supported by Microsoft,
as well as some other clients. Most other clients support the PLAIN authentication
mechanism. Since the vast majority of Email clients support only PLAIN or LOGIN,
mail server administrators will probably want to consider using STARTTLS to provide
an encryption "tunnel" between the client and server to protect the user name and
password.
