AXIS Q1615-E Mk II Network Camera
System Options
Host Name Configuration
The Axis product can be accessed using a host name instead of an IP address. The host name is usually the same as the assigned DlS
name. The host name is configured under System Options > Network > TCP/IP > Aovanceo.
Select Obtain host name via IPv4 DHCP to use host name provided by the DHCP server running on IPv4.
Select Use the host name to set the host name manually.
Select Enable oynamic DNS upoates to dynamically update local DlS servers whenever the Axis productrs IP address changes.
For more information, see the online help
Link-Local IPv4 Address
Link-Local Aooress is enabled by default and assigns the Axis product an additional IP address which can be used to access
the product from other hosts on the same segment on the local network. The product can have a Link-Local IP and a static
or DHCP-supplied IP address at the same time.
This function can be disabled under System Options > Network > TCP/IP > Aovanceo.
HTTP
The HTTP port used by the Axis product can be changed under System Options > Network > TCP/IP > Aovanceo. In addition to the
default setting, which is 80, any port in the range 1024–65535 can be used.
HTTPS
The HTTPS port used by the Axis product can be changed under System Options > Network > TCP/IP > Aovanceo. In addition to
the default setting, which is 443, any port in the range 1024–65535 can be used.
To enable HTTPS, go to System Options > Security > HTTPS. For more information, see HTTPS on page 56.
NAT traversal (port mapping) for IPv4
A network router allows devices on a private network (LAl) 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 (LAl) is increased
since most routers are pre-configured to stop attempts to access the private network (LAl) from the public network (Internet).
Use NAT traversal when the Axis product is located on an intranet (LAl) and you wish to make it available from the other (WAl) side
of a lAT router. With lAT traversal properly configured, all HTTP traffic to an external HTTP port in the lAT router is forwarded to
the product.
lAT traversal is configured under System Options > Network > TCP/IP > Aovanceo.
lote
• For lAT traversal to work, this must be supported by the router. The router must also support UPnP
• In this context, router refers to any network routing device such as a lAT router, letwork router, Internet Gateway,
Broadband router, Broadband sharing device, or a software such as a firewall.
Enable/Disable - When enabled, the Axis product attempts to configure port mapping in a lAT router on your network, using UPnP
TM
lote that UPnP must be enabled in the product (see System Options > Network > UPnP).
Use manually selecteo NAT router - Select this option to manually select a lAT router and enter the IP address for the router in
the field. If no router is specified, the product automatically searches for lAT routers on your network. If more than one router is
found, the default router is selected.
Alternative HTTP port - Select this option to manually define an external HTTP port. Enter a port in the range 1024–65535. If the
port field is empty or contains the default setting, which is 0, a port number is automatically selected when enabling lAT traversal.
