■ IP address: Current connections to the Network Camera.
■ Elapsed time: How much time the client has been at the webpage.
■ User ID: If the administrator has set a password for the webpage, the clients have to enter a user name
and password to access the live video. The user name will be displayed in the User ID column. If the
administrator allows clients to link to the webpage without a user name and password, the User ID
column will be empty.
There are some situations which allow clients access to the live video without a user name and
password:
1. The administrator does not set up a root password. For more information about how to set up a root
password and manage user accounts, please refer to Security > User account on page 79.
2. The administrator has set up a root password, but set
RTSP Authentication
to “disable“. For more
information about
RTSP Authentication
,
please refer to RTSP Streaming on page 70.
3. The administrator has set up a root password, but allows anonymous viewing. For more information
about
