Network - Advanced TCP/IP Settings

DNS Configuration
DNS (Domain Name Service) provides the translation of host names to IP addresses on your network.
Obtain DNS server address via DHCP - automatically use the DNS server settings provided by the DHCP server.
Click the View button to see the current settings.
Use the following DNS server address - enter the desired DNS server by specifying the following:
• Domain name - enter the domain(s) to search for the host name used by the AXIS 225FD. Multiple
domains can be separated by semicolons (;). The host name is always the first part of a Fully Qualified
Domain Name, e.g. myserver is the host name in the Fully Qualified Domain Name
myserver.mycompany.com where mycompany.com is the Domain name.
• Primary DNS server - enter the IP address of the primary DNS server.
• Secondary DNS server - will be used if the primary DNS server is unavailable.
Domain name - enter the domain(s) to search for the host name used by the AXIS 225FD. Multiple domains can
be separated by semicolons (;). The host name is always the first part of a Fully Qualified Domain Name, e.g.
myserver is the host name in the Fully Qualified Domain Name myserver.mycompany.com where
mycompany.com is the Domain name.
DNS servers - enter the IP addresses of the primary and secondary DNS servers.
NTP Configuration
Obtain NTP server address via DHCP - check this radio button to automatically look up and use the NTP server
settings as provided by DHCP. Click the View button to see the current settings.
Use the following NTP server address - to make manual settings, check this radio button and enter the host
name or IP address of the NTP server.
Host Name Configuration
The AXIS 225FD can be accessed using a host name, instead of an IP address. The host name is usually the same
as the assigned DNS Name. It is always the first part of a Fully Qualified Domain Name and is always one word,
with no period. For example, myserver is the host name in the Fully Qualified Domain Name
myserver.mycompany.com.
Enabling dynamic DNS updates allows you to alias a dynamic IP address to a static host name, allowing your
computer to be more easily accessed from various locations on the Internet. Outside users can always access
your server using the associated DNS name regardless of the WAN IP. The DNS server used by the user and/or
the DNS server responsible for the domain in use must support RFC2136 and allow updates from the camera.
The TTL (Time To Live) value determines how long (in seconds) the reply from the DNS server should be
remembered when checking that the domain name for the registered IP address is still valid.
Link-Local IPv4 Address
Link-Local Address is enabled by default and assigns the AXIS 225FD with an additional IP address for the
UPnP protocol. The AXIS 225FD can have both a Link-Local IP and a static/DHCP IP address at the same time -
these will not affect each other. See Network - UPnP™, on page 31.
