3.2.11 SNMP (For selected models only)
SNMP, Simple Network Management Protocol, is used to facilitate the exchange of management information
between network-attached devices, and network administrators could use it to monitor those devices.
The SNMP consists of three basic components:
Network-management systems (NMSs) to monitor and control the managed devices.
Managed devices as network nodes to save all network and management information, such as routers, access
servers, switches, bridges, hubs, etc.
Agents as network management software modules on managed devices to provide the status of managed devices
to NMSs.
Note: Before configuring SNMP settings, make sure your NMS is enabled first.
Enable SNMP V1 / V2C
Select “Yes” to enable this function, and enter the names of “Read community” and “Write community” based on
your NMS configurations.
To enable “Traps” to notify the management station of important events, choose “V1” or “V2C” in “Enable”, enter
the address and community name, and select the event type(s) needed.
Enable SNMP V3
SNMP V3 has a higher security level than SNMP V1 / V2C to allow configuring the authentication password and
encryption password.
Choose “Read/Write Security name” or “Read only Security name” based on your NMS settings, and enter the
community name. Then, select the authentication type from “MD5” or “SHA”, and enter the password for
authentication and encryption. The password length is from 8 to 31 characters.
18
3.2.12 IEEE 802.1X (For selected models only)
The settings here enable the camera to access a network protected by 802.1X/EAPOL (Extensible
Authentication Protocol Over LAN).
Note: For authentication to work properly, it's important to synchronize the time in the camera with an
NTP server.
Before using this function, make sure:
The switch and RADIUS server you have in the LAN environment supports IEEE 802.1X, and IEEE 802.1X
settings are enabled.
You’ve applied a digital certificate from a Certificate Authority which can be validated by a RADIUS server,
and the identity and password used.
Then, follow the steps below:
Step1: Connect this camera to a PC or laptop directly, and go to its login page to log in.
Note: To know how to connect the camera to a PC or laptop directly, please check “4 Modem / Hub +
Modem” in “ADVANCED NETWORK SETUP”.
Step2: Log into the camera, and go to “Config” “Network” “IEEE 802.1X”. Enable this function, and select
the EAP method you want to use.
Note: This camera supports “EAP-PEAP”, “EAP-TLS” and “EAP-TTLS”.
Step3: Enter the identity and password you get from the Certificate Authority, and select the EAPOL version
used in your switch.
Step4: Upload the certificate(s) issued by the Certificate Authority, and save.
Step5: Disconnect the camera from your PC or laptop, and connect it to the switch in the LAN environment you
want to use IEEE 802.1x, and the camera will start the authentication later.
19
3.2.13 Network Share (For selected models only)

To use this function, make sure:
A PC is installed in the same LAN environment as this camera, and you know the IP address of the PC.
A PC account is created as “Administrator” with a user name and password.
A folder in the PC is opened as shared to the user account you assigned.
Note: Please check “APPENDIX 9 PREREQUISITES FOR NETWORK SHARE” at page 56 for more details.
Enable this function, and enter the address of the PC, the folder being shared, and the user name and password
to access the PC. If the information is all correct, you'll see a check in the “Status” column, and you’re ready to
go to “Trigger” → “Snapshot” for further configurations.
Configure this camera to check the network connection of other device periodically, and send notifications via
Email or FTP for disconnection events.

APPENDIX 5 Q&A
Q1: I can connect to this camera in my house or office where it’s installed with wireless network.
But when I leave my house or office, I can’t connect to it from my mobile phone (with 3G network), or other
PC (connected to Internet). Why?
A1: You didn’t configure this camera to Internet, but only in LAN.
Please click here to download and follow the steps in the advanced network setup guide to complete
network configurations, or it’s recommended for you to check with your local installer or reseller for this
service because it’s usually hard for a person who doesn’t have network knowledge to set network
configurations.
Q2: My live images are not fluent. Why?
A2: Image fluency could be affected by the local network upload bandwidth, router efficiency, client network
download bandwidth, complexity of live view, and more.
(Recommended) To have the best image fluency, select QVGA; to have the best image quality, select
“HD1080P” or “SXVGA” based on the model you have; to have normal image fluency and quality, select
“VGA”.
Q3: The live video keeps flickering. Why?
A3: Please try adjusting the power line frequency to “60 Hz” or “50 Hz” for the camera.
