controls and perform a once-only installation of Axis' ActiveX component onto your workstation. If
your workstation restricts the downloading of additional software components, you can alternatively
configure your AXIS 2400/2401 to use a Java applet for updating the images.
Administrators can choose not to display the Administration and other navigational buttons from the
user interface. Selecting this feature ultimately means that the Administration tools can then only be
accessed by entering the full Admin address into the browser’s URL field; for example:

Designing your Application
Using the Wizards
Click the Admin Overview button and use the Wizards (explained below) to quickly
establish the parameters necessary for an application:
Wizard Type Parameters / Options Description
Installation Wizard
Sets all of the parameters
required for securely
viewing images directly in a
browser.
Users Define or edit the Administrator password (the Administrator user name is
permanently set to root, and the default password is set to pass), or define,
add and delete user names and passwords.
TCP/IP Specify the IP Address for your AXIS 2400/2401. If you intend to use DNS
names, specify the Domain Name and the IP-addresses for the primary and
secondary DNS servers. You may also optionally specify a Host Name for
the AXIS 2400/2401. There is also an option for restricting the network
bandwidth usage and for selecting the appropriate media.
Date and Time Synchronize the internal clock of the AXIS 2400/2401. This can be done
manually or automatically, from an NTP server or your computer clock.
There is also an option that automatically adjusts the time for daylight
saving.
Image Settings Choose monochrome or color images, and define the quality of the images.
Remember: the higher the quality of the images - the greater the file sizes
and the network bandwidth requirements.
Video Modulation Detection of the type of video modulation used.
Application Wizard
Use this wizard to develop
applications for:
transmitting images to
a remote server on your
network
sending e-mails with
embedded images or
links to recorded video
streams, and/or devel-
oping alarm or
time-based image
applications
Video Sources
Upload
Specify the video sources to which the settings made in the wizard will
apply. Proceed to define how and when your images will be transmitted,
by choosing to either:
upload images continuously, or
upload images only when an alarm event occurs.
Alarms, buffers,
and destination Depending upon the choice of application made above, continue with the
wizard to define:
digital input alarm conditioning
pre- and post-alarm buffer settings
the network protocol to use for upload
SMTP settings and the e-mail recipient (if appropriate)
FTP path name and security settings (if used)
Refer to the appropriate settings page for full details on each of the above
parameters.

Tip!
General Server Settings
Click the Video Server icon to display and/or edit the following settings:
Date and Time
Click the Date and Time icon to set the date and time, automatically, or manually.
Automatic setting of the date and time requires you to either synchronize the time with
that on your computer or, alternatively, to provide the IP address of an NTP server. To
automatically adjust the time to reflect changes made by daylight saving, check the box
provided. Click Save to register the settings with the Video Server.
Security
To prevent unauthorized use of the Video Server, access is password-protected and
restricted to defined Users and Administrators only. Administrators have unrestricted
access to the Administration Tools and can determine the registration of all other users.
As an Administrator, click the Security icon to either:
define or edit the Administrator password (the Administrator user name is permanently set to
root, with the default password set to pass)
configure, add or delete user names and passwords
Important!
By default, the AXIS 2400/2401 supports anonymous user access, which means that
anybody on the Internet/intranet has access to the video images and Admin Tools from a
browser. Entering at least one user name and password for an authorized user in the
Security page will disable anonymous access, and thereafter only allow defined users. If
the anonymous user service is satisfactory for your application, do not add any users. The
Administrator password should, however, still be changed.
Having used the Wizards for initially configuring your application, refer to the on-line Help and use the
Administration Tools for refining the application to meet your specific requirements.
Upon delivery, the AXIS 2400/2401 is configured for open access (anonymous users), with one
pre-configured Administrator user name and password, set to root and pass, respectively. The Adminis-
trator password should always be changed, to prevent unauthorized access to the Admin Tools and/or
product images. Furthermore, all Axis products are supplied with these defaults.

Layout Settings
Using the Layout settings, you can define your default viewer and enable a wide range of
personal features for inclusion on the product’s Home Page.
Default viewer for Internet Explorer
To enable the updating of images in Microsoft Internet Explorer, you must set your
browser to allow ActiveX controls and perform a once-only installation of the Axis
ActiveX component onto your workstation. If your computer restricts the downloading of
additional software components, you can instead configure your AXIS 2400/2401 to use a
Java applet for updating the images. Click the appropriate button for your choice and then
click OK.
Personal Settings
Many of the features on the Home page can be customized. For example, you can quickly
change the background color and include your corporate logo by clicking the appropriate
radio buttons and providing the appropriate URL for any given object.
Refer to the on-line help for more information on personal settings.
Caution!
View Parameter List
The Parameter List provides a comprehensive list of all of the system parameters and their
current settings. Click View Parameter List to display the list.
View Log File
System messages are recorded in a single log file and stored in product memory.
Consequently, the file can be used for examining system events. The log file also serves as
a useful diagnostic tool when attempting to resolve any problem that might occur. See also
Troubleshooting, on page 40.
To display the latest server messages since the last Restart of the system, click the View
Log File button.
View Server Report
This button shows important information about the server status and settings.
View Release Notes
This button opens a window showing the release notes for the installed firmware.
Unchecking the Show Admin box removes the Admin button from the product Home Page, and effec-
tively means that the Administration Tools can then only be accessed by entering the full Admin address
into the browser’s URL-field; for example: http://172.21.1.200/admin/.

Emergency Actions
In certain circumstances it may become necessary to perform a Restart of the AXIS
2400/2401, or to return it to its Factory Default settings. Both of these actions can be
performed by clicking the appropriate button on this page. Please see Reinstating the
Factory Default Settings, on page 27, for details of how to reset to the factory default.
Network Settings
Click the Network icon to display, edit and refine the settings for:
TCP/IP - used by the Video Server for transmitting data over the network.
DNS (Domain Name System) - the Internet service used by the product for translating
domain names into IP addresses.
SMTP (E-mail) - this is the protocol for sending e-mail messages between mail servers on the
network.
Miscellaneous - set the network media and to restrict the bandwidth used by the product.
Configure the Network Settings with reference to the on-line help and the table below:
TCP/IP Parameters Description
DHCP Enable DHCP to allow centralized assignation of IP addresses. Requires a DHCP server on the network.
BOOTP Enable the BOOTP protocol for setting the IP address automatically. For further information on using
BOOTP, see Other IP Setup Methods, on page 38. If you intend to use the AXIS IP Installer, BOOTP must be
enabled.
IP address Specifies the unique 32-bit IP address of your unit.
Default Router Specifies the network router your video server will use.
Subnet Mask If unsure what value to use, contact your system administrator.

Name.
DNS Parameters Description
Domain Name Enter the name of the domain your AXIS 2400/2401 belongs to.
Primary DNS Defines the IP address of the primary DNS server. This is used for identifying a computer by name instead
of IP address.
Secondary DNS The IP address of the secondary DNS server. This will be used if the primary DNS server is unavailable.
SMTP Parameters Description
Primary Mail Server Defines the server that provides your mail facilities.
Secondary Mail Server Defines a secondary server that can provide mail facilities in the event of the primary server being
unavailable.
Return Address The reply address for e-mails sent by the AXIS 2400/2401; that is, the name that will appear in the From’
field of the dispatched e-mail.
Miscellaneous Description
Select Media This does not normally need to be changed, but if you have specific needs - due to the use of network
switches or similar equipment, select the type of network media here.
Max Bandwidth With the default set to unlimited, this parameter defines a restriction on the network bandwidth used by
the video server; particularly useful for a connection to a busy network.
HTTP Port Number This does not normally need to be changed, but may be, if you have particular requirements.
