Assigning the IP

Address to the Camera

To connect the camera to a network, you need to assign a new IP address to the camera when you install the camera for the first time.

You can assign an IP address in two ways:

• Using the setup program stored in the supplied CD-

ROM (see page 9)

• Using the ARP (Address Resolution Protocol)

commands (see page 75)

This section explains how to assign an IP address to the camera using the supplied setup program and how to configure the network.

Before starting, connect the camera to a local network, referring to “Connections” in the supplied Installation

Manual.

Consult the administrator of the network about the assigned IP address.

Assigning the IP Address Using the

Setup Program

1

Insert the supplied CD-ROM disc into your CD-

ROM drive.

After a short time a window will open displaying the files on the CD-ROM.

2

Click the Setup icon of IP Setup Program.

The “File Download” dialog opens.

HTTP is the protocol used for reading a usual Web page.

In an environment capable of reading Web page, you can watch or listen to the video/audio by selecting TCP port.

UDP (Unicast): When UDP (Unicast) is selected as the communication port, RTP (Real-time

Transport Protocol) is adopted for video/audio communication. As RTP is the protocol for running video/audio data, video/audio can be played smoother than when TCP (HTTP) is selected. If the fire-wall is installed between the camera and the computer, or depending on the network environment, the video/audio may not played properly when UDP (Unicast) is selected. In this case, select TCP.

UDP (Multicast): You can select this when the

multicast streaming (page 34) is On. When UDP

Using the SNMP

This unit supports SNMP (Simple Network

Management Protocol). You can read MIB-2 objects and write some MIB-2 objects using software such as

SNMP manager software. This unit also supports the coldStart trap which occurs when the power is turned on or the unit restarts, and the Authentication failure trap which informs of an illegal access using SNMP.

Using CGI commands, you can set community name and access limitation, reading/writing right, host to send traps, and some MIB-2 objects. To allow these settings, you need authentication by the camera administrator.

1. Inquiry Commands

You can check the SNMP Agent settings using the following CGI commands.

<Method>

GET, POST

<Command>

“http://ip_adr/snmpdconf/inquiry.cgi?inqjs=snmp

(JavaScript parameter format) http://ip_adr/snmpdconf/inquiry.cgi?inq=snmp

(standard format)

With the above inquiry, you can obtain the following setting information. The following explains the setting information using the inqjs=snmp (JavaScript parameter) format.

var sysDescr=“\“SONY Network Camera SNC-

RZ25\”” var sysObjectID=“1.3.6.1.4.1.122.8501” var sysLocation=“\“\”” var sysContact=“\“\”” var sysName=“\“\”” var snmpEnableAuthenTraps=“1” var community=“public,0.0.0.0,read,1”

...1

...2

...3

...4

...5

...6

...7

var community=“private,192.168.0.101,write,2” ...8

var trap=“public,192.168.0.101.1” ...9

1 describes the case of “mib-2.system. sysDescr.0”.

You cannot change this parameter.

2 describes the case of “mib-2.system. sysObjectID.0”. You cannot change this parameter.

3 describes the case of “mib-2.system. sysLocation.0”. This field is used to describe information on the location of this camera. Nothing is set at the factory.

4 describes the case of “mib-2.system. sysContact.0”.

This field is used to describe the information on administrator of this camera. Nothing is set at the factory.

5 describes the case of “mib-2.system. sysName.0”.

This field is used to describe administration mode of this camera. Nothing is set at the factory.

6 describes the case of “mib-2.snmpEnable

AuthenTraps.0”. This example shows when “1”

(enable) is set. With this setting, a trap occurs when there is an Authentication failure. When “2”

(disable) is set, no Authentication failure trap occurs.

7 describes the community name and the reading/ writing attributes. This example shows the identification number “ID=1”, the community name public, and enables read from any IP address

(0.0.0.0).

8 describes the community name and the reading/ writing attributes, similarly to 7. This example shows the identification number ID=2, the community name “private”, and enables “read/ write” by the SNMP request packet from the host

“192.168.0.101”.

9 describes the host name to send a trap. This example shows the identification number “ID=1”, the community name “public”, and enables sending of traps to the host having the IP address

“192.168.0.101”.

2. Setting Commands

The unit supports the following setting commands of

SNMP.

<Method>

GET, POST

<Command> http://ip_adr/snmpdconf/snmpdconf.cgi?

<parameter>=<value>&<parameter>=...&...

First, perform the settings of the following parameters.

1) sysLocation=<string>

Set the case of “mib-2.system.sysLocation.0” in the

<string> position. The maximum length of

<string> is 255 characters.

2) sysContact=<string>

Set the case of “mib-2.system.sysContact.0” in the

<string> position. The maximum length of

<string> is 255 characters.

76

Using the SNMP

3) sysName=<string>

Set the case of “mib-2.system.sysName.0” in the

<string> position. The maximum length of

<string> is 255 characters.

4) enaAuthTraps=<value>

Set the case value of “mib-2.snmp.snmp

EnableAuthenTraps.0” in the <string> position.

Type “1” (enable) or “2” (disable) in the <value> position.

5) community=<ID>,<rwAttr>,

<communityName>,<IpAddressString>

Set the community name and the reading/writing attributes. <ID> describes the setting identification number (1 to 8), <rwAttr> describes a character representing the reading/writing attribute (“r”, “R”,

“w or “W”), <communityName> describes the community name to be set, and <IpAddressString> describes the IP address of the host you allow access (0.0.0.0 for any host).

Example: To allow reading/writing by any host in the

“private” community and having the ID number “2”.

community=2,w,private,0.0.0.0

6) trap=<ID>,<communityName>,

<IpAddressString>

Set the host you want to send traps to. <ID> describes the setting identification number (1 to 8),

<communityName> describes the community name to send traps to, and <IpAddressString> describes the IP address of the host to send traps to.

Example: To specify the destination of traps as the private community and the ID number “1”.

rap=1,public,196.168.0.101

7) delcommunity=<ID>

This parameter is used to delete the previous community setting. <ID> describes the community setting identification number (1 to 8).

8) deltrap=<ID>

This parameter is used to delete the previous setting of the host to send traps to. <ID> describes the trap setting identification number (1 to 8).

When you have finished changing the SNMP setting information using the above parameters 1) to 8), check the changed settings using an inquiry commands. If the changed settings are OK, restart the SNMP using the following CGI command.
