Axis Communications 206 User Manual

WEP - Key Type - The key types available depend on the access point being used. The 

following options are available: 

• Manual - Allows you to manually enter the hex key. 
• ASCII - In this method the string must be exactly 5 characters for 64-bit WEP and 13 

characters for 128-bit WEP. 

• Passphrase - The passphrase can contain up to 31 characters. In 64-bit WEP, the 

Passphrase generates 4 different keys. For 128-bit WEP, only 1 key is generated, which is 
then replicated for all 4 keys. Key generation is not standardized and can differ from brand 
to brand. Check that the generated keys are identical to those in your access point - if not 
they must be entered manually.

WEP - Active Transmit Key - When using WEP encryption, this selects which of the 4 

keys the AXIS 206W uses when transmitting.

Enter the host names or addresses for your primary and secondary mail servers in the fields 

provided. This allows the camera to send IP address change notification messages via 

email. 

The AXIS 206 includes support for UPnP™, which is enabled by default. If also enabled on 

your computer (Windows ME or XP), the camera will automatically be detected and a new 

icon will be added to “My Network Places.”

UPnP™ must also be enabled on your workstation. To do this, open the Control Panel from the 

Start Menu 

and select 

Add/Remove Programs. Select Add/Remove Windows Components and open the Networking 

Services section. Click Details and then select UPnP™ as the service to add.

The Status indicator LED on the front of the camera can be set to flash at a configurable 

interval (or to not light up at all) whenever the unit is accessed. For a listing of all LED 

behavior, see page 9, or see the online help.

UPnP™ is a certification mark of the UPnP

™ 

Implementers Corporation.
