Socks - Axis 243Q Blade User Manual

HTTPS
The default HTTPS port number (443) can be changed to any port within the range
1024-65535. This is useful for e.g. simple port mapping.
NAT traversal
Use NAT traversal when your video server is located on an intranet and you want to make
it available from the other side of a NAT router.
FTP
The FTP server running in the AXIS 243Q Blade enables the upload of e.g. new firmware,
user applications, etc. Check the box to enable the service.
RTSP
The RTSP protocol allows a connecting client to start an MPEG-4 stream. Check the box to
enable the RTSP server and enter the RTSP port number to use. The default setting is 554,
and the allowed port range is 1024-65535. Note that MPEG-4 streams will not be available
if this is not enabled.
Network traffic
The default setting is Auto-negotiate which means that the correct speed is automatically
selected. If necessary, you can set the connection speed by selecting it from the drop-down
list.
Maximum bandwidth - Specify, in Mbit/s or kbit/s, the maximum bandwidth that the
video server is allowed to use on your network. This is a useful function when connecting
your video server to busy or heavily loaded networks. The default setting is Unlimited.
Note:
When using MPEG-4 as the video format, remember that setting a maximum bandwidth value here may
create problems for individual video streams if the maximum value is less than the sum of the bit rates set
for the video streams.

SOCKS

SOCKS is a networking proxy protocol. The AXIS 243Q Blade 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 video server is located on a local network behind a firewall,
but notifications, uploads, alarms, etc., need to be sent to a destination outside the local
network (e.g. to the Internet).
