The AXIS Internet Dynamic DNS Service

The AXIS Internet Dynamic DNS Service is a free service provided by Axis. This
service allows you to quickly and simply install your camera, which then receives a
static name (DNS name) and a dynamic IP address. More information about the AXIS
Internet Dynamic DNS Service is available at www.axiscam.net
To perform this procedure, your network should have an Internet connection with no
HTTP proxy, and IP addresses should preferably be assigned via DHCP.
Follow these instructions:
1. After making the connections for network and power, wait for the Status indicator
on the front of the camera to show a steady green.
2. Press the Reset button on the underside of the camera once. The Status indicator
flashes green while it connects to the AXIS Internet Dynamic DNS Service.
3. Wait for the Status indicator to go back to showing a steady green.
4. To complete the installation, now visit www.axiscam.net from an Internet
connected computer. This must be done within 60 minutes of pressing the Reset
button.
5. Follow the on-screen instructions provided by the AXIS Internet Dynamic DNS
Service. You will need the product's serial number to complete the installation.
See Manual Installation using AXIS IP Utility, on page 10 for instructions on how
to set the password.
Important!
Please note that this procedure will send the IP address, firmware version, product type, serial
number and HTTP port number of the network camera to the AXIS Internet Dynamic DNS Ser-
vice.
No personal information is transferred.
To remove the DNS name and unregister from this service, open the Setup pages in
the network camera, click System Options > Network > TCP/IP > Basic, click the
Settings button for the AXIS Internet Dynamic DNS Service and finally, click the
Remove button.
