The table below provides a brief overview of the System Options. Each section is explained 

in more detail in the pages that follow.

To prevent any unauthorized use of the product, the AXIS 230 supports multi-level and 

multi-user password protected access. A maximum of 20 users can be defined. An 

Administrator has unrestricted access to the product's administration tools and can 

determine the registration and rights for all other users.

The Users List displays all of the users currently defined. The administrator user name 

(root) is permanent and cannot be deleted. The default password (pass), however, can and 

should be changed.

abled by default. 

• All Axis products are shipped with the same default Administrator password.
