QoS (Quality of Service)
QoS (Quality of Service) guarantees a certain level of a specified resource to selected traffic on a network. A QoS-aware network
prioritizes network traffic and provides a greater network reliability by controlling the amount of bandwidth an application may use.
TheQoSsettingsareconfigured under System Options > Network > QoS . Using DSCP (Differentiated Services Codepoint) values, the
Axis product can mark the following types of traffic: live video, event/alarm traffic and management traffic.
SMTP (email)
To send email messages from the Axis product via SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol), an SMTP mail server must be set up. This
is done under System Options > Network > SMTP (email).

email address is also required. If the mail server requires authentication, check Use authentication to log in to this server and enter
the necessa ry information.
SNMP
The Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) allows remote manag ement of network devices. An SNMP com munity is the

The Axis product can be configured to s upport SNMP on the System Options > Network > SNMP page.
Depending on the level of security required, select the version on SNMP to use.
SNMP v1/v2 provides the lowest level of security. The community name can be specified as a passw ord for read or read/write
