Use these settings to modify the image resolution and compression. Setting the compression level affects the image quality and the amount of bandwidth required; the lower the compression, the higher the image quality with higher bandwidth requirements.

See the online help files for more information.

GOV Settings

The GOV structure describes the composition of the video stream. Setting the GOV-length to a higher value saves considerably on bandwidth but may have an adverse effect on image quality.

Bit Rate Control

The bit rate can be set as Variable Bit Rate (VBR) or Constant Bit Rate (CBR).

VBR adjusts the bit rate according to the image complexity, using more for lower activity.

CBR allows you to set a fixed Target bit rate th need to increase for increased image activity, but in this case cannot, the frame rate and image quality are affected negatively. To partly compensate for this, it is possible to prioritize either the frame rate or the image quality whenever the bit rate needs to be increased. Not setting a priority means the frame rate and image quality are equally affected.

Note:

To determine a reasonable bit rate, go to Setup > Video & Audio > Video Stream > Image, check the Include

MJPEG

Sometimes the image size is large due to low light or complex scenery. Adjusting the maximum frame size helps to control the bandwidth and storage used by the Motion JPEG video stream in these situations. Defining the frame size as Unlimited provides consistently good image quality at the expense of increased bandwidth and storage usage during low light. Limiting the frame size optimizes bandwidth and storage usage, but may give poor image quality. To prevent increased bandwidth and storage usage, the maximum frame size can be limited.

Stream Profiles

There are four pre-programmed stream profiles available for quick set-up. These settings can be adjusted and new customized profiles can be created. Each profile has a descriptive name, describing its usage and/or purpose. The profiles can be accessed from the Live View page.

Link-Local IPv4 Address - This is enabled by default and assigns the network cameras an additional IP address for use

with UPnP™. The camera can have both a Link-Local IP and a static/DHCP-supplied IP address at the same time - these will

not affect each other.

HTTP and HTTPS - The default HTTP/HTTPS port numbers (80 and 443 respectively) can be changed to any port within the

range 1024-65535. This is useful for simple security port mapping, for example.

NAT traversal (port mapping) for IPv4 - A broadband router allows devices on a private network (LAN) to share a single

connection to the Internet. This is done by forwarding network traffic from the private network to the “outside”, that is, the Internet. Security on the private network (LAN) is increased since most broadband routers are pre-configured to stop attempts to access the private network (LAN) from the public network/Internet.

T traversal when your network camera is located on an intranet (LAN) and you wish to make it available from the

Use NA other (WAN) side of a NAT router. With NAT traversal properly configured, all HTTP traffic to an external HTTP port in the NAT router is forwarded to the camera.

Notes:

•

For NAT traversal to work, this must be supported by the broadband router.

• The broadband router has many different names: “NAT router”, “Network router“, Internet Gateway”, “Broadband

sharing device” or “Home firewall” but the essential purpose of the device is the same.

Wireless (AXIS M1011-W/AXIS M1031-W only)

Wireless settings in the AXIS M1011-W/AXIS M1031-W must be the same as the access point or ad-hoc device. When changing the settings, they should always be made first in the camera and then in the wireless access point. This ensures that the camera is always accessible when making changes.

rn is more secure than WEP. For detailed

WPA-/WPA2-PSK (Wi-Fi Protected Access - Pre-Shared Key)

The AXIS M1011-W/AXIS M1031-W uses a pre-shared key (PSK) to initiate WPA security. The pre-shared key is entered on the access point and on each device on the wireless network. The key can be entered either as Manual hex, as 64 hexadecimal (0-9, A-F) characters, or as a Passphrase, using 8 to 63 ASCII characters. The access point keeps out unauthorized users by requiring the key to communicate.

WPA-/WPA2-Enterprise (Wi-Fi Protected Access - Enterprise)

WPA-/WPA2-Enterprise is a security method that provides strong data protection for multiple users and large networks. It uses the 802.1X authentication framework with TKIP or AES encryption. Network users trying to gain access are verified through an authentication server.

Certificates - The client and server authenticate each other using digital certificates provided by a Certificate Authority. To

gain access to the protected network, the AXIS M1011-W/AXIS M1031-W presents its certificate to the network switch. If the certificate is approved, the switch allows access. You may need to contact your network administrator for information on certificates, user IDs and passwords.

For more information on certifica

tes refer to the online help .

WEP (Wired Equivalent Protection)

The original security standard used in wireless networks that provides a minimal level of security that can deter minor intrusions.

Note:

Configuring the passphrases and keys saved will be sent in plain text. The fastest, most secure method to configure AXIS M1011-W/AXIS M1031-W is using a wired connection, since it disables the wireless connection and ensures greater secrecy while entering settings.

AXIS M1011-W/AXIS M1031-W using an unsecured wireless connection is not recommended, since

SOCKS

SOCKS is a networking proxy protocol. The Axis network camera 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 network camera is located on a local network behind a firewall, and notifications, uploads, alarms, and such need to be sent to a destination outside the local network (such as the Internet). See the online help for more information.

QoS (Quality of Service)

Quality of Service (QoS) guarantees a certain level of a specified resource to selected traffic on a network. Quality can be defined as a maintained level of bandwidth, low latency, and no packet losses. 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 flows with lesser priority.

• Greater reliability in the network, thanks to the control of control over bandwidth races between applications.

the amount of bandwidth an application may use, and thus

The QoS in Axis network video products marks the data packets for various product. This makes it possible for network routers and switches to reserve a fixed amount of bandwidth for these types of traffic. The network cameras mark the following types of traffic:

•video

•audio

•event/alarm

• management network traffic

types of network traffic originating from the

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 the 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.

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 name can be specified as a password for read or read/write access to all supported SNMP objects. The community is the the group of network devices using SNMP.

• SNMP V3 - provides encryption and secure passwords. HTTPS

If the IP address intended for the camera and the IP address of your computer are located on different subnets, you will not be able to set the IP address. Contact your network administrator to obtain an appropriate IP address.

Disconnect the camera from the network. Run the Ping command. (In a Command/DOS window, type ping and the IP address of the unit).

If you receive: Reply from <IP address>: bytes = 32; time = 10 ms..... - this means that

the IP address may already be in use by another device on your network. You must obtain a new IP address and reinstall the unit.

If you see: Request timed out - this means that the IP address is available for use with your camera. In this case, check all cabling and reinstall the unit.

The static IP address in the camera is used before the DHCP server sets a a dynamic address. This means that if the same default static IP address is also used by another device, there may be problems accessing the camera. To avoid this, set the static IP address to 0.0.0.0.

If the camera and client are on the same network, run AXIS IP Utility to locate the camera. Identify the camera using its model or serial number

Alternatively:

1) Move the camera to an isolated network or to one with no DHCP or BOOTP server. Set the IP address again, using the AXIS IP Utility (see the Installation Guide) or the ARP/Ping commands.

2) Access the unit and disable DHCP in the TCP/IP settings. Return the unit to the main network. The unit now has a fixed IP address that will not change.

3) As an alternative to 2), if dynamic IP address via DHCP or BOOTP is required, select the required service and then configure IP address change notification from the network settings. Return the unit to the main network. The unit now has a dynamic IP address, but will notify you if the address changes.

General performance considerations

When setting up your system, it is important to consider how various settings and situations will affect performance. Some factors affect the amount of bandwidth (the bit rate) required, others can affect the frame rate, and some affect both. If the load on the CPU reaches its maximum, this will also affect the frame rate.

The following factors are among the most important to consider:

• High image resolutions and/or lower compression levels result in larg

• Access by large numbers of Motion JPEG and/or unicast

• Simultaneous viewing of different streams (resolution, compression, etc.) by differen affected.

• Accessing both Motion JPEG and H.264/MPEG-4 video streams simult

AXIS M1011/M1011-W/M1031-W - Glossary of Terms

Glossary of Terms

ActiveX - A standard that enables software components to

interact with one another in a networked environment, regardless of the language(s) used to create them. web browsers may come into contact with ActiveX controls, ActiveX documents, and ActiveX scripts. ActiveX controls are often downloaded and installed automatically as required.

Advanced Audio Coding (AAC) - is a standardized, lossy

pression and encoding scheme for digital audio, and is

com designed to be the successor of the MP3 format. AAC has the following advantages: better sound quality, smaller file sizes, multichannel and higher resolution audio, and it requires less processing power for decoding.

Angle - The field of view, relative to a standard lens in a

m still camera, expressed in degrees, e.g. 30°. For

35m practical purposes, this is the area that a lens can cover, where the angle of view is determined by the focal length of the lens. A wide-angle lens has a short focal length and covers a wider angle of view than standard or telephoto lenses, which have longer focal lengths.

ARP (Address Resolution Protocol) - This protocol is used

associate an IP address to a hardware MAC address. A

to request is broadcast on the local network to discover the MAC address for an IP address.

ARTPEC (Axis Real Time Picture Encoder) - This chip is

d for image compression.

ASIC (Application Specific Integrated Circuit) - A circuit

ned for a specific application, as opposed to a general

desig purpose circuit, such as a microprocessor.

Aspect ratio - A ratio of width to height in images. A com

mon aspect ratio used for television screens and computer monitors is 4:3. High-definition television (HDTV) uses an aspect ratio of 9:16.

Audio feedback - This occurs when a sound loop exists

een a microphone and a loudspeaker. The result is a

betw loud high pitched squealing noise.

Autoiris (DC-Iris) - This special type of iris is electrically con

trolled by the camera, to automatically regulate the

amount of light allowed to enter.

Bitmap - A bitmap is a data file representing a rectangular

of pixels. It defines a display space and color for each

grid pixel (or ‘bit’) in the display space. This type of image is known as a ‘raster graphic.’ GIFs and JPEGs are examples of image file types that contain bitmaps.

Because a bitmap uses this fixed raster method, it cannot

sily be rescaled without losing definition. Conversely, a

ea vector graphic image uses geometrical shapes to represent the image, and can thus be quickly rescaled.

Bit rate - The bit rate (in kbit/s or Mbit/s) is often referred

speed, but actually defines the number of bits/time

to as unit and not distance/time unit.

Bonjour - Also known as zero-configuration networking,

Bonjour enable other on a network, without having to enter IP addresses or configure DNS servers. Bonjour is a trademark of Apple Computer, Inc.

Broadband - In network engineering terms, this describes transmission same carrier. In more popular terminology, broadband is taken to mean high-speed data transmission.

CCD (Charged Coupled Device) - This light-sensitive image

ice used in many digital cameras is a large integrated

dev circuit that contains hundreds of thousands of photo-sites (pixels) that convert light energy into electronic signals. Its size is measured diagonally and can be 1/4", 1/3", 1/2" or 2/3".

CGI (Common Gateway Interface) - A specification for

munication between a web server and other (CGI)

com programs. For example, a HTML page that contains a form might use a CGI program to process the form data once it is submitted.

CIF (Common Intermediate Format) - CIF refers to the

og video resolutions 352x288 pixels (PAL) and

anal 352x240 pixels (NTSC). See also Resolution.

Client/Server - Client/server describes the relationship betw

een two computer programs in which one program, the client, makes a service request from another program, the server, which fulfils the request. Typically, multiple client programs share the services of a common server program. A web browser is a client program that requests services (the sending of web pages or files) from a web server.

CMOS (Complementary Metal O

CMOS is a widely used type of semiconductor that uses both negative and positive circuits. Since only one of the circuit types is on at any given time, CMOS chips require less power than chips using just one type of transistor. CMOS image sensors also allow processing circuits to be included on the same chip, an advantage not possible with CCD sensors, which are also much more expensive to produce.

Codec - In communications engineering, a codec is usually

coder/decoder. Codecs are used in integrated circuits or

a chips that convert e.g. analog video and audio signals into a digital format for transmission. The codec also converts received digital signals back into analog format. A codec uses analog-to-digital conversion and digital-to-analog conversion in the same chip.

Codec can also mean compression/decompression, in which case it computer program for reducing the size of large files and programs.

DHCP uses the concept of a ‘lease’ or amount of time that a

n IP address will be valid for a computer. The lease

give time can vary, depending on how long a user is likely to require the network connection at a particular location.

DHCP also supports static addresses for e.g. computers running web

DNS (Domain Name System) - DNS is used to locate and translate addresses. A domain name is a meaningful and easy-to-remember name for an Internet address. For example the domain name www.example.com is much easier to remember than 192.0.34.166. The translation tables for domain names are contained in Domain name servers.

Domain Server - Domains can also be used by organ their (Windows) computers. Each user within a domain has an account that usually allows them to log in to and use any computer in the domain, although restrictions may also apply. The domain server is the server that authenticates the users on the network.

Duplex - See Full-duplex.

Ethernet - Ethernet is the most widely installed local area

netw special grades of twisted pair wires. The most commonly installed Ethernet systems are 10BASE-T and 100BASE-T10, which provide transmission speeds up to 10 Mbps and 100 Mbps respectively.

Factory default settings - These are the settings that origina from the factory. If it should become necessary to reset a device to its factory default settings, this will, for many devices, completely reset any settings that were changed by the user.

Firewall - A firewall works as a barrier between networks,

. between a Local Area Network and the Internet. The

e.g firewall ensures that only authorized users are allowed to access the one network from the other. A firewall can be software running on a computer, or it can be a standalone hardware device.

Frame rate - The frame rate used to describe the frequency

which a video stream is updated is measured in frames

at per second (fps). A higher frame rate is advantageous when there is movement in the video stream, as it maintains image quality throughout.

Full-duplex - Transmission of data in two directions simultaneo a telephone systems. Half-duplex also provides bi-directional communication, but only in one direction at a time, as in a walkie-talkie system. See also Simplex.

Gain - Gain is the amplification factor and the extent to which an Amplification factors are usually expressed in terms of power. The decibel (dB) is the most common way of quantifying the gain of an amplifier.

Gateway - A gateway is a point in a network that acts as an entry point to another network. In for example, a computer server acting as a gateway often also acts as a proxy server and a firewall server. A gateway is often associated with both a router, which knows where to direct a given packet of data that arrives at the gateway, and a switch, which furnishes the actual path in and out of the gateway for a given packet.

GIF (Graphics Interchange Format) - GIF is one of the most com are two versions of the format, 87a and 89a. Version 89a supports animations, i.e. a short sequence of images within a single GIF file. A GIF89a can also be specified for interlaced presentation.

GOV (Group Of VOPs) - A group of VOPs is the basic unit of different types and numbers of VOPs (I-VOPs, P-VOPs) as determined by the GOV length and GOV structure. See also VOP.

GOV length - The GOV length determines the number of imag VOP.

GOV structure - The GOV structure describes the com the type of images (I-VOPs or P-VOPs) included in the stream, and their internal order. See also GOV and VOP.

2.4 GHz band. IEEE 802.11b specifies an 11 Mbit/s data rate on the 2.4 GHz band, while 802.11a allows up to 54 Mbit/s on the 5 GHz band.

Image compression - Image compression minimizes the file size (in bytes) of compressed image formats are JPEG and GIF.

Interlacing - Interlaced video is video captured at 50 pic

tures (known as fields) per second, of which every 2 consecutive fields (at half height) are then combined into 1 frame. Interlacing was developed many years ago for the analog TV world and is still used widely today. It provides good results when viewing motion in standard TV pictures, although there is always some degree of distortion in the image.

To view interlaced video on e.g. a computer monitor, the

o must first be de-interlaced, to produce progressive

vide video, which consists of complete images, one after the other, at 25 frames per second. See also Progressive scan.

IP (Internet Protocol) - The Internet Protocol is a method transmitting into individual and completely independent "packets." Each computer (or host) on the Internet has at least one address that uniquely identifies it from all others, and each data packet contains both the sender's address and the receiver's address.

The Internet Protocol ensures that the data packets all

at the intended address. As IP is a connectionless

arrive protocol, which means that there is no established connection between the communication end-points, packets can be sent via different routes and do not need to arrive at the destination in the correct order.

Once the data packets have arrived at the correct

tion, another protocol - Transmission Control

the GIF

file format, JPEG is an image file type commonly used on the web. A JPEG image is a bitmap, and usually has the file suffix '.jpg' or ".jpeg." When creating a JPEG image, it is possible to configure the level of compression to use. As the lowest compression (i.e. the highest quality) results in the largest file, there is a trade-off between image quality and file size.

kbit/s (kilobits per second) - A measure of the bit rate, i.e.

rate at which bits are passing a given point. See also
