System Options
Security
User access control is enabled by default, the administrator sets the root password on first access. Other users are
authorized with user names and passwords, or the administrator can choose to allow anonymous viewer login to
the Live View page, as described below:
Users - the u
ser list displays the authorized users and access levels:
Viewer - the lowest level
of access, which only allows the user access to the Live View page.
Ope
rator - an Operator can view the Live View page, create and modify event types and adjust certain
other settings. The Operator does not have access to the Systems Options configuration pages.
Ad
ministrator - an administrator has unrestricted access to the Setup Tools and can determine the regis-
tration of all other users.
User Settings - ch
eck the corresponding checkboxes to enable:
Anonymous viewer
login - allows any viewer direct access to the Live View page.
Maximum number of s
imultaneous viewers - enter a value here to restrict the number of unicast viewers
accessing the unit. This is useful if you need to save on bandwidth. (Note that all multicast viewers count
as 1 viewer.)
Anonymous PTZ control login
- allows any viewer access to the Pan/Tilt/Zoom controls on the Live View
page.
IP Address Filter
Enable IP Address Filtering - to allow or deny access to the AXIS 215 PTZ/AXIS 215 PTZ-E, check the box
Enable IP address filtering. Once enabled, the IP addresses in the list will be allowed or denied access according
to the choice made in the drop-down list Allow/Deny the following IP addresses.
The administrator can add up to 256 IP address ranges or single IP addresses to the Fil
tered IP Addresses list. If
IP address filtering is enabled, the AXIS 215 PTZ/AXIS 215 PTZ-E will allow or deny requests coming from the
IP addresses in the list.
See the IP address filtering help files for information on how to add IP address ranges.
The users from these IP addresses need
to be specified in the user list with the appropriate access rights (User,
Operator or Administrator).
Referrals -
to prevent unauthorized sources from including the video stream from the AXIS 215 PTZ/AXIS 215
PTZ-E into external Web pages, check the Referrals checkbox and enter the IP address or Host name of the
computer that hosts the Web pages with the included video stream. Several IP addresses/host names can be
defined and are separated by semicolons(;)
HTTPS
For greater security, the AXIS 215 PTZ/AXIS 215 PTZ-E can be configured to use HTTPS (Hypertext Transfer
Protocol over SSL (Secure Socket Layer)). That is, all communication that would otherwise go via HTTP will
instead go via an encrypted HTTPS connection.
Certificate -
to use HTTPS for communication with the AXIS 215 PTZ/AXIS 215 PTZ-E, a Certificate must be
created using one of the following methods:
A self-signed certificate can be creat
ed in the network camera, but this does not guarantee the same level of
security as an official certificate.
An official certificate issued by a CA (Certificate Authority).
A CA issues and manages security credentials
and public keys for message encryption.
