FTP
Network Camera not only has web service for easy access but also has a built-in FTP service
to make system integrators easy to use. According to settings on the application page,
Network Camera can sequentially send updated snapshots over a specific period to an
external server with choices of overwriting and time suffix. For security staff, Network
Camera can directly send snapshots to an external server as evidence according to event
settings. Through Network Camera's FTP daemon, administrators can quickly update
configurations and maintenance.
Those files with GIF extensions which are used for a homepage layout and can be read and
overwritten. They also can be downloaded by managed users. Other files will be explained
below.

Uploading snapshots periodically to an external FTP server

In sequential mode, Network Camera will send out snapshots according to interval and
period settings. If snapshot files are intended for quick updates, it is better to skip date and
time suffix. The file name will then be video.jpg. If the snapshots are used for occasional
monitoring, suffix with date and time can help administrators classify them easily.

Customizing homepage images

Administrators may change the look of the logo, background and image buttons by him or
