The AXIS Internet Dynamic DNS Service
The AXIS Internet Dynamic DNS Service is a free service provided by Axis. The service allows
you to quickly and simply install your camera, which then receives a static name (DNS name)
and a dynamic IP address. More information about the AXIS Internet Dynamic DNS Service is
available at www.axiscam.net
To perform this procedure, your network should have an Internet connection with no HTTP
proxy, and IP addresses should preferably be assigned via DHCP.
1. Connect the AXIS 214 to your local network, using a standard network cable.
2. Connect power to the camera.
3. Wait 60 seconds and, using a suitably pointed object, push the reset button on the
underside of the camera once.
4. Visit www.axiscam.net where you will be guided through the remainder of the
installation. Please have the serial number of your product ready and follow the
instructions on the screen.
The serial number/MAC address (S/N) is located on the label on the underside of the AXIS 214.
5. Enter a password for the root user (administrator).
6. If required, accept the installation of AMC onto your workstation. SeeAXIS Media
Control (AMC), on page 9 for more information.
7. The installation is now complete.
Note:
Please note that this procedure will send the IP address, firmware version, product type, serial
number and HTTP port number of the PTZ network camera to the AXIS Internet Dynamic DNS
Service. No personal information is transferred.
To remove the DNS name and unregister from this service, open the Setup pages in the PTZ
network camera, click System Options > Network > TCP/IP > Basic, click the Settings button
for the AXIS Internet Dynamic DNS Service and finally, click the Remove button.
