Proprietary ISP Dial-up Protocols
If your ISP requires you to install any special software before initiating a Dial-up connection, it is
likely that your ISP is using proprietary protocols, incompatible with the standard-based AXIS
2100. In these circumstances we recommend that you ask your ISP to provide you with an
alternative dial-up facility that allows for standard dial-up networking. Axis does not guarantee the
compatibility of this product with any ISP that requires the use of proprietary or non-standard
software for the Dial-up connection.
Remote Imaging in a Custom-designed Web Page
The AXIS 2100 can be configured as a standalone application that is completely remote from any
network. Ideal for remote surveillance, industrial control, and process monitoring applications, you
can quickly configure the AXIS 2100 for a direct installation to your serial modem. This is suitable
for a wide range of remote applications that can be viewed from anywhere, from the comfort of the
computer at home, or the office.

Having established a Dial-up connection for your AXIS 2100, the camera plugs directly into a
serial modem to provide immediate access to live video images in your own custom-designed Web
page. You access the images and the camera Web pages in exactly the same way as you would
dial-up to your ISP.
