AXIS Panorama PTZ User’s Manual Configuration
17
System Security
To prevent unauthorized use, the AXIS Panorama PTZ supports multi-user password
protection and access is restricted to defined users only. The system Administrator(s) has
unrestricted access to the camera’s Administration Tools and can determine the registration
and access rights for all users.
User Access Rights
Click System and then Users to perform any of the following tasks:
• edit the administrator (root) password
• define, add and delete user names and passwords
• assign individual access rights to a selected user, where each user is given one or all of the fol-
lowing levels of access:
•Admin: a user granted Admin rights has unrestricted access to the camera’s Administra-
tion Tools and can consequently determine the registration of all users.
•Dial-in: provides the user with dial-in modem access to the AXIS Panorama PTZ.
•View: provides the lowest level of access, which allows the user to view the images only.
Adding at least one such user will disable anonymous users.
Important!
• The Administrator’s default user name and password (set to root and pass) can be used for logging in
to the unit for the first time, but the default password must be changed to enable the camera’s secu-
rity functions. All Axis products are shipped with the same password as default.
• By default, the AXIS Panorama PTZ is set for anonymous user access, which means that anybody on
the network can view the video images from a browser. To restrict open access, simply register a sin-
gle authorized user with viewing rights. This effectively disables the anonymous user service and
restricts camera access to specified users. If the anonymous user service is satisfactory for your
application, simply do not add any other users.
