AXIS 209FD/FD-R/FD-R M12

SOCKS

SOCKS is a networking proxy protocol. The AXIS 209FD/FD-R/FD-R M12 can be configured to use a SOCKS

server to reach networks on the other side of a firewall/proxy server. This functionality is useful if the

camera is located on a local network behind a firewall, but notifications, uploads, alarms, etc., need to be

sent to a destination outside the local network (e.g. to the Internet).

QoS (Quality of service)

Quality of Service (QoS) provides the means to guarantee a certain level of a specified resource to selected

traffic on a network. Quality can be defined as e.g. a maintained level of bandwidth, low latency, no packet

losses, etc. The main benefits of a QoS-aware network can be summarized as:

• The ability to prioritize traffic and thus allow critical flows to be served before fl

ows with lesser

priority.

• Greater reliability in the network, thank

s to the control of the amount of bandwidth an application

may use, and thus control over bandwidth races between applications.

The QoS in Axis network video products

marks the data packets for various types of network traffic

originating from the product. This makes it possible for network routers and switches to e.g. reserve a fixed

amount of bandwidth for these types of traffic. The AXIS 209FD/FD-R/FD-R M12 marks the following types

of traffic:

•video

•event/alarm

• management network traffic.

QoS Settings

For each type of network traffic supported by your Axis network video product, enter a DSCP

(Differentiated Services Codepoint) value. This value is used to mark the traffic’s IP header. When the

marked traffic reaches a network router or switch, the DSCP value in the IP header tells the router or switch

which type of treatment to apply to this type of traffic, for example, how much bandwidth to reserve for it.

Note that DSCP values can be entered in decimal or hex

form, but saved values are always shown in

decimal.

SMTP (email)

Enter the host names (or IP addresses) and port numbers for your primary and secondary mail servers in the

fields provided, to enable the sending of notifications and image/video email messages from the camera to

predefined addresses via SMTP.

If your mail server requires authentication, check the box for Use authentication to log in to this server

d enter the necessary information.

SNMP

The Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) allows remote management of network devices.

Depending on the level of security required, select the version of SNMP to use. The three levels of security

are:

• SNMP V1 - includes no security.

• SNMP V2c - uses very simple security. The community n

ame can be specified as a password for read or

read/write access to all supported SNMP objects. The community is the group of network devices using

SNMP.

• SNMP V3 - provides encryption and secure passwords.

HTTPS must be enabled.
