ADVANCED SECURITY
AND NETWORK MANAGEMENT
Axis network cameras offer a comprehensive set of network
capabilities, optimizing the network video solution for security,
efficiency and manageability. AXIS 211W provides the highest
level of network security, including support for Enterprise or
Personal Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA/WPA2) for wireless
communication, and HTTPS encryption as well as IEEE 802.1X
network access control for both wireless and wired connection
to the network.
IPv6 is supported in addition to IPv4, as insurance against
the growing shortage of IP addresses, eliminating the need
for network address translation and simplifying configuration
in an IPv6-enabled network. Network utilization is optimized
with the support for Quality of Service (QoS), which enables
reservation of network capacity and prioritization of mission-
critical surveillance in a QoS-aware network.
