Firewall Settings
The built-in firewall protects your AXIS 2460 against unauthorized access. To restrict
access, you can add IP addresses to the list of allowed addresses - no others will be
permitted access.
Enable/Disable Firewall - Click this button to enable or disable the firewall function.
Allowed IP Addresses - This list box shows the currently configured IP addresses.
Adding Allowed IP Addresses
IP Address - Add a single IP address or a whole range of addresses. This last option can be
useful if you have a large number of IP addresses that all need access to the Network DVR.
To add a range of addresses type e.g. 123.123.123.* This will add all the addresses in the
range 123.123.123.00 to 123.123.123.255. Up to 256 allowed IP addresses can be specified.
Allow - Check the boxes for the protocols that users will be allowed to use to access the
Network DVR. These can be FTP and/or HTTP. See below for special considerations
concerning HTTP.
TCP Port no. - If you have particular requirements concerning which ports access will be
allowed on, enter these here. To allow HTTP (see above) the port value must correspond to
the value set on the Network Settings page. If this is set to some other value than 80 (the
default setting), then this value must be added manually in this field. If the setting on the
Network Settings page is 80, then nothing needs to be configured here.
After adding the above information click the Add New button or the Save button to save
the changes.
Note: If you are accessing the AXIS 2460 via a proxy server, the proxy server's IP
address must be added to the list of allowed IP numbers.
