HTTPS
The default HTTP port number (443) can be changed to any port within the range
1024-65535. This is useful for e.g. simple port mapping.
NAT traversal
Use NAT traversal when your video server is located on an intranet and you want to make
it available from the other side of a NAT router.
Network Traffic
The default setting is Auto-negotiate which means that the correct speed is automatically
selected. If necessary, you can set the connection speed by selecting it from the drop-down
list.
Maximum bandwidth - Specify, in Mbit/s or kbit/s, the maximum bandwidth the AXIS
240Q is allowed to use on your network. This is a useful function when connecting the
video server to busy or heavily loaded networks. The default setting is Unlimited.

Network - SOCKS
SOCKS is a networking proxy protocol. The AXIS 240Q 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 video server 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).
Network - SMTP (email)
Enter the host names or addresses for your primary and secondary mail servers in the fields
provided, to enable event and error email messages from the video server to predefined
addresses, via SMTP. If the mail server requires SMTP authentication, check the box for
Use authentication to log in to this server and enter the user name and password used for
logging in. Several different methods of authentication are available. See the online help
for more information.
