The QoS in Axis network video products marks the data packets for various types of
network traffic originating from the product. This makes it possible for network routers
and switches to e.g. reserve a fixed amount of bandwidth for these types of traffic. The
following types of traffic are marked:
• live video
• live audio
• event/alarm traffic
• management network traffic.
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 which 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.

SMTP (email)
Enter the host names (or IP addresses) and port numbers for your primary and secondary
mail servers in the fields provided, to enable the sending of notifications and image/video
email messages from the camera to predefined addresses via SMTP.
If your mail server requires authentication, check the box for Use authentication to log in
to this server and enter the necessary information.
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 pass-
word 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 must be enabled.
