AXIS Camera Management

Efficient management tool for your Axis network video products

In any installation, with few or many Axis video products, the

AXIS Camera Management offers powerful and efficient installation

and management capabilities.

With this software installed on your Windows PC you can

automatically locate multiple Axis video products on the local

network using standard network protocols. Furthermore, you can

set the IP addresses, configure, show connection status and manage

firmware upgrades of multiple Axis video products sequentially or

in parallel. Remote video devices with known IP addresses can also

be managed.

For simplified overview, the video devices can be grouped into user

defined groups and subgroups such as Building A - Second floor,

etc. When new Axis video products are added to the network, or if

status changes e.g. connection lost, the video devices are placed in

pre-defined groups for easy handling. Video devices may easily be

re-grouped, making it possible to view and manage your specific

surveillance installation efficiently. The AXIS Camera Management

allows secure ways to connect to Axis video products using HTTPS

encryption.
