naxisVideo-AxisVideoNetwork

This component is the top-level network component for the Axis video driver. It is available to drag from the axisVideo palette to the Drivers node in the Nav tree, or by adding the driver using the New button in the Driver Manager view.

You access this view by right-clicking the Axis Video Network node in the Nav tree and clicking Views > Property Sheet.

In addition to the standard network properties (Status, Enabled, Fault Cause, Health, Alarm Source Info, Monitor, Tuning Policies, Fox Video Stream Preferred, and Poll), this component provides these properties.

Property	Value	Description
Http Config	additional properties	Configures Internet access. Refer to Http Config properties.
Event Receiver, Enabled	`true` (default) or `false`	Turns on and off the configuration of events coming in from the devices.
Event Receiver, Tcp Ip Port	number (defaults to 9797)	Identifies the network TCP/IP port.
Event Receiver, Socket Timeout	number (defaults to 60000)	Defines how long a connection waits on a read before timing out.
Discovery Preferences, Do Not Ask Again	`true` or `false` (default)	Determines the type of connection to use between the station and the camera. `true` uses the fox connection to route video output from the camera to the station. `false` disables this feature.
Discovery Preferences, Timeout	hours minutes seconds (defaults to 10 seconds)	Specifies how long to attempt the discover of an Axis camera before timing out.

Http Config properties

Configures the connection.

Property	Value	Description
Use Tls	`true` (default) or `false`	Configures secure communication between the station and network devices. By default, the system uses TLS secure communication. You would change this network property to `false` only if a legacy device (camera) cannot support TLS. If some devices on your network support TLS and others do not, you may add two networks of the same type: one for the secure devices, and the other for those that do not support security.
Address, Ip Address	IP address	Defines the IP address of the source or destination device. In this case, the IP address of the Supervisor PC.
Address, Port	number	Defines the port, when using the web UI, over which to transmit the camera’s video signal. 443 supports only secure communication between the camera and the station. For a camera that does not support TLS secure communication, that is, if `Use Rtsp Stream` (Maxpro Camera property) is `true` or if you are using the HTTP protocol (`Use Tls` is `false` and `Use Rtsp Stream` is `false`), change this property to 80. CAUTION: Be aware that the framework cannot prevent a flooding attack or other malicious activity if you choose to configure your application without secure communication. If using fox streaming, which uses the station to render the video stream, this port should be different from the station’s fox port. If you are not using fox streaming, this port should be the same as the station’s fox port. In this case, it defines the network’s communication port.
Connection Timeout	number of milliseconds	Determines how long a station attempts to connect to a server before the attempt fails. This time should not be too short to cause false connection failures, and not so long as to cause excessive delays when a server is down.
