Page 10 AXIS 211W Installation Guide Configure the wireless connection Once the AXIS 211W has been installed on your network, the wireless settings can be configured. These settings should always (i.e. both during installation and at all other times) be configured or changed in the camera first and in the wireless access point secondly. This ensures that the camera is always accessible when making changes. The AXIS 211W automatically senses the available network connections, and allows only one of these to be active at a time. Connecting a network cable disables the wireless connection. Using a wired connection ensures greater secrecy while making these settings. Note: For even greater security use HTTPS. Go to Setup > System Options > Security > HTTPS and refer to the camera’s online help. Open the wireless settings from Setup > System Options > Network > Wireless. These settings can also be reached from the Basic Configuration menu. Status of Wireless Networks This list is the result of a network scan. Access points with a disabled SSID Broadcast will not appear unless the camera is associated with it. The network currently associated to is shown in blue. A network using unsupported security is shown in grey. The following information is provided: • • • • • • SSID - The name of a wireless network (or ad-hoc device). If the same name occurs several times this means that several access points for that network were found. The AXIS 211W cannot be configured to only associate with one particular access point. Network Type - An Access Point (Master) or Ad-Hoc device. Security - Shows which type of security the network uses. See below for the supported security types. Channel - Shows the wireless channel currently in use. Signal strength - Shows the signal strength. Bit rate - Shows the bit rate in Mbit/s. This can only be shown for the access point currently in use. Note that the bit rate shown is the current rate, and that this value may vary over time. Wireless Settings These settings control how the AXIS 211W interacts with the wireless network. Apart from identifying the wireless network, it is also possible to enable wireless encryption. SSID - This is the name of the wireless network the camera is configured for. The field accepts up to 32 alphanumeric characters. The name must be exactly the same as that used in the wireless access point, or the connection will not be established. Leaving this field blank means the camera will attempt to access the nearest unsecured network. AXIS 211W Installation Guide Page 11 Note: SSID is sometimes written as ESSID. Network type - Setting this to Master means the camera will attempt to access the network via an access point. The Ad-hoc option allows the camera to connect to other wireless devices, e.g. a laptop with a wireless connection. Security - The AXIS 211W supports two security methods: • • WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK (recommended method) WEP The AXIS 211W uses a pre-shared key (PSK) for key management. The pre-shared key can be entered either as Manual hex, as 64 hexadecimal (0-9, A-F) characters, or as a Passphrase, using 8 to 63 ASCII characters. WEP (Wired Equivalent Protection) WEP - Authentication - Select Open or Shared Key System Authentication, depending on the method used by your access point. Not all access points have this option, in which case they probably use Open System, which is sometimes known as SSID Authentication. WEP - Key length - This sets the length of the key used for the wireless encryption, 64 or 128 bit. The encryption key length can sometimes be shown as 40/64 and 104/128. 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 Productname 3/Productname 2 uses when transmitting. Complete the wireless installation 1. Check that the wireless settings in the camera correspond to the settings in the access point. 2. Disconnect the network cable from the camera. Refresh the web page after 20-30 seconds to confirm the wireless connection. If the camera cannot be accessed, run AXIS IP Utility to discover the new IP address and try again.
