1 Product Introduction

1.1 Main Features

This product is a Network Camera Management System with the following features:

■ IPv6 Compatible

This product is compatible with IPv6, the next generation of Internet protocol. There are a number of merits to this, such as, abundant global addresses and security improvement through using IPsec.

■ Camera Privacy Protection with VPN

This product is compatible with PPTP (IPv4) and IPsec (IPv6) for VPN. Security is ensured by encrypting all camera and PC data connected to this product before it is sent.

■ High speed wireless LAN for IEEE 802.11b/g

802.11g has 2 modes: 1. the 802.11g only mode, and 2. the 802.11g and 802.11b simultaneous mode.

Also, the wireless LAN function can be suspended.

* The numbers displayed are a theoretical maximum for the standard wireless LAN, and not

necessarily the speed when data is actually sent.

■ High speed throughput

Maximum WAN - LAN wired connection speeds of 98 Mbps (IPv4/SmartBits), 77 Mbps (IPv6/ SmartBits), and 16 Mbps (FTP[PPTP]).

■ Automatic Setup

By using this product with Panasonic's network camera (Customer-provided), the camera's automatic registration function can automatically set up wireless security (encryption WEP setup etc.) and camera network related settings. (port forwarding setup etc.)

Introduction

Product

■ Camera Portal

By using this product with Panasonic's network camera (Customer-provided), the camera portal can list up to 16 camera names and their still images on a monitoring screen. Also, the camera portal page is set up automatically.

■ Cell Phone Camera Portal

Create a portal page to access your cameras easily from a cell phone. Cameras on location can be added automatically, and remote cameras can also be added.

■ Camera Status Notification

This product can send an E-mail to your PC or mobile phone, if a camera disconnection is detected.

Note

• LAN <Local Area Network>: A computer network limited to the immediate area, usually the same building or floor of a building. LAN IP addresses, a.k.a "local IP address" typically begin with

192.168.xxx.xxx.

• WAN <Wide Area Network>: A computer network that spans a relatively large geographical area and usually includes Internet access. In this manual "WAN" refers to your Local Area Network connected to this device as well as Internet access provided by your local Internet Service Provider (ISP).

What is IPv6?

• IPv6 is short for "Internet Protocol Version 6".

• IPv6 was created to address the additional IP addresses that will be needed as the Internet continues to expand.

• IPv6 is expected to gradually replace IPv4, with the 2 coexisting for a number of years during a transition period.

• Though most ISPs (Internet Service Providers) do not yet support IPv6, many local networks already use it. When your ISP supports IPv6, your Panasonic Network Camera Management System will be ready!
