AXIS 209FD/FD-R
SOCKS
SOCKS is a networking proxy protocol. The AXIS 209FD/FD-R 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 camera 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).
QoS (Quality of service)
Quality of Service (QoS) provides the means to guarantee a certain level of a specified resource to selected
traffic on a network. Quality can be defined as e.g. a maintained level of bandwidth, low latency, no packet
losses, etc. The main benefits of a QoS-aware network can be summarized as:
• The ability to prioritize traffic and thus allow critical flows to be served before fl
ows with lesser
priority.
• Greater reliability in the network, thank
s to the control of the amount of bandwidth an application
may use, and thus control over bandwidth races between applications.
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 AXIS 209FD/FD-R marks the following types of traffic:
•video
•event/alarm
• 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
an
d 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 n
ame can be specified as a password 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.
