shipped with the line termination
enabled; that is, with the DIP
switch positioned to the left (On).
If the AXIS 2411 is to be connected in parallel with other
equipment, disable the input termination by turning the DIP
switch to the right-position (Off).
Failure to do so can cause the
picture quality to be impaired.
Status Indicator
The multi-colored status indicator
defines the operational status of the
server, as described below:
• green - the indicator flashes briefly
and momentarily displays orange
during the start-up and self-test
routines; the indicator then displays
green to indicate a healthy unit status.
• red - the indicator will display red
only if a problem with the AXIS
2411 has occurred
• orange - flashes orange and green
when resetting the factory default
Control Button
Using a suitably pointed
object, press this button to
restore the factory default
settings. For further information, refer to Network

the ip address of the video server has changed in a DHCP 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 18. If you intend to use the AXIS IP Installer, BOOTP must
be
enabled.
Internet 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. The most common value is 255.255.255.0
Host Name If you are using a DNS server on your network (see below), this is usually the same as the assigned DNS
Name.
DNS Parameters Description
Domain Name Enter the name of the domain your AXIS 2411 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 2411; 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.

DHCP
DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) is a protocol that lets network administrators
centrally manage and automate the assignment of IP addresses in an organization's
network.
Important!
Dynamic IP Address Notification Settings
When the IP address changes by means beyond your control, such as by DHCP, you can
choose to be notified of the change via HTTP, FTP or SMTP. Click the icon to display, edit
and refine the settings for address notification.
Referring to the on-line help and the table below, configure the dynamic IP address
notification settings.
DHCP should only be enabled if you know which IP address the AXIS 2411 will get from the DHCP server,
or if your version of DHCP can update a DNS server, which then allows you to access the AXIS 2411 by
name. If DHCP is enabled and you cannot access the unit, you may have to reset it to the factory default
settings (see page 16) and then perform the installation again (see page 7).
Parameter Description
HTTP Enabling HTTP means the server will send an HTTP GET request to the specified URL. This can then easily
be taken care of by a designated cgi-script, which registers the request by some means. Custom
parameters can be used by entering them in the field provided. The fields User Name and Password,
(located directly below the field for Custom Parameters) should be used if the script is password
protected. If you need to pass a proxy server to connect to the URL for the host, provide your user
information in the relevant fields. See also the On-line help for more information.
SMTP Enabling SMTP will send an e-mail notification of any change in IP address. Enter the recipient’s address
and a sender’s address, as well as any text you want to appear in the subject of the e-mail. Note that you
must configure the mail server under Network Settings. See also the On-line help for more information.
FTP Saves a notification file on an FTP server. Provide the connection details for the server and your user name
and password. If there is a firewall between the server and the FTP server, it is recommended that Passive

Resetting to the Factory Default Settings
In certain circumstances, it may be necessary to reset to the Factory Default settings for
your AXIS 2411. This is performed by clicking Admin =>Factory Default in the web
interface.
An alternative way to perform a factory default is by using the Control Button. The
Control Button is located next to the three LED indicators.
Follow the instructions below to reset to the product factory default settings, using the
Control button:
1. Switch off the AXIS 2411 by disconnecting the power cable.
2. Using a suitably pointed object, press in and keep the Control Button pressed.
While the button is pressed, reconnect the power cable.
3. Keep the button pressed until the Status Indicator displays yellow (note that this may take up
to 15 seconds). Now release the Control Button. When the Status Indicator changes to green
(which may take up to 60 seconds) the AXIS 2411 will then have been reset to the original
factory default settings.
Note:
The AXIS 2411 supports the two most common video standards - NTSC and PAL.
NTSC delivers 525 lines of resolution at 60 half-frames per second and is the common standard in the
United States; whereas PAL delivers 625 lines at 50 half-frames per second and is the dominant video
standard in Europe.
Resetting to the factory default settings will cause all parameters (including the IP address) to be reset.
Refer to Installation, on page 7, or Other IP Setup Methods, on page 18, for information on how to set
the IP address.

Appendix A - Other IP Setup Methods
As an alternative to the ARP command (described earlier in the Installation section of this
manual), you can set the IP address for your AXIS 2411 using the following method:
Notes:
Ethernet/MAC Address: The AXIS 2411 is pre-configured with a unique Ethernet/MAC Address
based upon the serial number printed on the underside label of the unit; where the serial number
typically follows the format 00-40-8c-xx-yy-zz. You need this address to complete the
installation.
Method Operating Systems Refer to...
AXIS IP Installer Windows 95, 98, NT “Using AXIS IP Installer”
(page -19)
BOOTP
Requiring a BOOTP daemon on your system, this method operates
over the entire network. A request to an active daemon initiates a
search of the boot table to find an entry matching the unit’s Ethernet address. The daemon downloads the IP address to the device if a
match is found.
UNIX
•Make sure the AXIS 2411 is powered up and connected to the network.
•IP Address: Acquire an unused IP address from your Network Administrator, and do NOT use the default
IP address featured in the following examples when installing your AXIS 2411.
•Server Privileges: Although no special privileges are required for Windows 95/98/Me or XP (Home), you
will need Administrator privileges for Windows NT/2000 and XP (Professional). UNIX systems require
Root privileges.

PINGing Your IP Address
By sending a packet to the specified address and waiting for a reply, the PING utility can
determine whether a specific IP address is accessible. It also provides a particularly useful method
for confirming addressing conflicts with your AXIS 2411 on the network.
Having disconnected your AXIS 2411, follow the instructions below in association with
Symptoms, Possible Causes and Remedial Actions, on page 23, and run the PING utility to
troubleshoot TCP/IP problems on your network:
1. Start a Command window and type
ping x.x.x.x, where x.x.x.x is the IP address of the
AXIS 2411.
2. If you receive the reply
destination host unreachable, then the AXIS 2411 is not
accessible on your subnet. You must obtain a new IP address and reinstall the unit.
3. If this does not solve the problem, disconnect
the AXIS 2411 from the network and run PING
again. See the table below for an interpretation of the results.

Symptoms, Possible Causes and Remedial Actions
Symptoms Possible causes Remedial actions
The AXIS 2411 cannot be
accessed from a browser.
The IP address is already
being used by another
device.
Run the PING utility (as described above) and follow the
appropriate recommendations.
The IP address is located on a
different subnet.
Run the PING utility (as described in PINGing Your IP Address, on
page 22). If you get “no response” or similar, the diagnosis is
probably correct.
In Windows, check that the IP address for your AXIS 2411 is on the
same subnet as your workstation. Exactly how this is done varies
from one version of Windows to another. See Windows’ help for
more information.
If your AXIS 2411 and your workstation are on different subnets,
you will not be able to set the IP address. Contact your network
administrator.
In Windows 95, the ARP
table was empty when you
tried to set the IP address.
In Windows 95, the ARP command cannot be used if you have an
empty ARP table. If the table is empty, re-install the product
ensuring that the IP address for your own PC is also used.
Type
arp -a to view the ARP table. If it is empty, you must ping
an existing unit on your network before you can download the IP
address to the AXIS 2411, using ARP.
Note: The AXIS IP Installer is an easy-to-use alternative for
installing the unit.
The IP address has changed. Check that there is no DHCP server running on the network and
disable BOOTP in the video server.
Note: The AXIS IP Installer will not work with DHCP.
Other networking problems. Test the network cable by connecting it to some other network
device and then PINGing that device from your workstation.
Test the unit’s network interface by connecting a local computer to
the unit, using a standard Crossover (hub-to-hub) Cable.
If the above actions do not resolve the problem, the AXIS 2411 may
be faulty. In this case, report your findings to your local distributor.
A programming script is
locking the unit.
Restore the unit to the factory default settings.
The Power indicator is not
constantly lit.
Faulty power supply. Verify that you are using an Axis PS-K power adapter.
The Network indicator
displays red.
Faulty cabling. See Other networking problems, above.
The Status indicator is
flashing red rapidly.
Hardware failure. Contact your Axis dealer.
Your AXIS 2411 works
locally, but not externally.
Firewall protection. Check the Internet firewall with your system administrator.
Default routers required. Check if you need to configure the default router settings.

Note:
Bad snapshot images. Display incorrectly
configured on your
workstation.
In Display Properties, configure your display to show at least 65000
colors, i.e. at least 16-bit.
Using only 16 or 256 colors on your display will produce dithering
artifacts in the image.
Incorrect exposure in images. Incorrect line termination. If the AXIS 2411 is to be connected in parallel with other
equipment, disable the input termination by turning the
corresponding DIP switch to the right-position (OFF). Inversely,
when not using other equipment, set the Termination dip-switch to
ON (Left= default setting).

AXIS 2411 Admin Manual Updating the Firmware
25
Appendix C - Updating the Firmware
The AXIS 2411 firmware is stored in Flash memory. This memory is provided by a silicon chip that,
just like any other ROM device, retains data content even after power is removed. Flash memory is
unique because it allows its data to be erased and re-written. This means you can install firmware
updates for your AXIS 2411 as they become available - without having to replace any parts. New
firmware can be simply loaded into the AXIS 2411 over the network.
Obtaining Updated firmware
The latest version of the AXIS 2411 firmware is available free of charge from the Axis website at
www.axis.com or from your local distributor.
Updating the firmware
The AXIS 2411 Flash memory is updated over the network using FTP. See the detailed
instructions supplied with each new firmware release.
Important!
• Always read the upgrade instructions available with each new release, before updating the firmware.
• Upgrading normally takes between 30 seconds and 10 minutes, although it can take longer. After
starting the process, you should always
wait at least 20 minutes before power-cycling the AXIS 2411
- even if you suspect the procedure has failed.
• In controlled environments, flash memory updates provide a very safe way of updating the firmware.
However, flash products can become damaged if the update is not performed correctly. Your dealer
reserves the right to charge for any repair attributable to faulty updating by the user.
Page 26
Customizing The Video Server AXIS 2411 Admin Manual
26
Appendix D - Customizing The Video Server
Modifying the File System
The Linux-based operating system and flash memory file system make it possible for advanced
users and application developers to customize the AXIS 2411 by adding additional files to the
read-write area of the flash memory.
Important!
Although modification of the file system is not supported, the Axis web at www.axis.com does
maintain various documents designed to assist third-party development. These include detailed
information such as the Axis Camera API, HTTP-Interface Specification
• Modification of the flash file system is NOT supported by Axis. In practice, this means that Axis will
not answer questions relating to custom script or Web page development, but merely wishes to
inform potential application developers of the possibilities afforded by the Linux-based file structure
of the AXIS 2411.
• When attempting to modify the product, you may inadvertently create a problem that will require
you to return the AXIS 2411 to its factory default settings. At worst, you may even cause permanent
damage to the unit, rendering it unusable. Consequently, Axis strongly recommends that inexperienced users DO NOT modify the file system.
Page 27
AXIS 2411 Admin Manual Customizing The Video Server
27
Configuring using FTP
As an alternative to configuring the AXIS 2411 using a browser, the configuration parameters of
your unit can be modified using the File Transfer Protocol (FTP).
FTP is supported by most operating environments and is a useful method for quickly downloading
standard pre-configurations to one or more video servers.
Here’s how to access the video server via ftp:
1. In the Address/Location field of your browser, type:
ftp://<video server ip address>
2. Press Enter:
Example using ip address 10.13.4.101
3. Enter the user name and password to log in:
Default user name:
root
Default password: pass
4. You will find useful configuration files in these catalogues:
etc/sysconfig
etc/network
Page 28
Customizing The Video Server AXIS 2411 Admin Manual
28
Custom Web Pages
The AXIS 2411 contains a re-writable flash memory file system that allows some directories and
files to be changed by the root user, using FTP. This strictly non-supported product functionality,
makes it possible for advanced users and application developers to add their own Web pages,
scripts, and other files to the Axis product.
Customizing Procedures
The existing Administration pages are stored in a compressed read-only area of the file system. If
you intend to try changing them you must adhere strictly to the instructions provided here and
ensure that you DO NOT inadvertently change any files other than those featured in this section.
Failure to comply with this notice may render your product unusable.
All files stored in the
/etc/httpd/html directory are available through the product Web server
in the virtual directory
/local/. The URL to resident pages in the /etc/httpd/html directory is
http://IP/local/<filename>.htm.
Editing and Storing Your Web pages
Follow the instructions below to create and save customized pages to the AXIS 2411:
1. Using a html editor, create your html file and store it on your local PC hard drive.
2. Now use ftp to upload the file to the AXIS 2411. Enter the following on the command line:
Example!
3. Log on as
root with the root password pass.
4. Change to the correct directory within the AXIS 2411 by entering the following command:
5. For binary storage of the files (not absolutely necessary, but good practice), type
bin.
6. Upload your html files by entering:
7. Start your browser and view the Web pages you uploaded, by entering the following URL in
the location/Address field:
ftp <server ip address >
ftp 172.21.1.200
cd /etc/httpd/html
put <filename.html>
http://<server ip address>/local/<filename.html>
Page 29
AXIS 2411 Admin Manual Customizing The Video Server

Example!
The images are now updated in your browser.
8. Enter
bye in the command window to exit the ftp program.
Note:
Creating a New Home Page
Having created and stored your new custom Web pages in product memory, you then proceed to
assign one of these pages as your default Home page in the AXIS 2411, as described below:
Caution!
1. Start a new ftp session to the AXIS 2411, by entering:
2. Type
bin
3. Navigate your way to the appropriate directory, entering:
4. Fetch the
boa.conf file, by typing:
5. Edit
boa.conf and add the following line to the end of the file:
This will create an alias to your own “homemade”
index.html file stored in the
/etc/httpd/html/ directory and redirect access to it. Replace the edited boa.conf in the
video server, by using the
Put command.
http://172.21.1.200/local/index.html
You can change the html files as and when you like, but remember that the available flash
memory is limited.
Adding a new Web page to your AXIS 2411 is not something that should be undertaken lightly. Remember: Axis does not support the personalization of product Web pages and strongly recommends that
inexperienced users DO NOT
perform such modifications.
ftp <camera ip address >
cd /etc/httpd/conf/
get boa.conf
Alias /index.html /etc/httpd/html/index.html
Alias / /etc/httpd/html

Note:
6. After making these changes, you will not be able to automatically access the default index
page. Instead you must type in the complete URL to access it:
As an alternative to the above, you might like to edit the line starting with Document Root so that it
points directly to the local directory. However, after doing this you will then be unable to access the
original Home pages - so be warned!

1. Apague el AXIS 2411 desconectando el cable de la corriente.
2. Con un objeto convenientemente agudo, pulse y mantenga apretado el botón "Control”
y vuelva a conectar el cable de la corriente
3. Siga manteniendo el botón “Control” apretado hasta que el indicador de estado luce
amarillo (tenga en cuenta que puede tomar 15 segundos), luego deje de apretar el
botón “Control”. El indicador de estado aparece en verde después de máximo 1 minuto
y su AXIS 2411 se reinicia ahora con las configuraciones originales de la fábrica.
Nota:
Para su venta AXIS 2411 esta configurada para ser públicamente accedida (usando 'anonymous' ). La
unidad también esta configurada para poder acceder a ella como Administrador, usando el nombre de
usuario y la contraseña 'root' y 'pass' respectivamente. La contraseña del Administrador debe de ser
cambiada inmediatamente para prevenir el acceso sin autorización a la administración y a las imágenes.
Luego de hacerlo, cierre y vuelva a abrir su navegador para asegurar que los nuevos parámetros han sido
registrados.
La reinstalación de los parámetros originales de la fabrica causara a todos los parámetros ser reajustados, incluyendo la dirección IP.
