Initial Access to the Video Server

Check Network Settings

The Video Server can be connected either before or immediately after software

installation onto the Local Area Network. The Administrator should complete the

network settings on the configuration page, including the correct subnet mask and IP

address of gateway and DNS. Ask your network administrator or Internet service

provider for the detail information. By default the Video Server requires the

Administrator to run installation every time it reboots. If the network settings are to

remain unchanged, disable the Install option. Refer to “Network settings” on the

System Configuration page for details. If any setting is entered incorrectly and cannot

proceed to setting up the Video Server, restore the factory settings following the steps

in the “Troubleshooting” chapter of the Appendix.

Add Password to prevent Unauthorized Access

The default Administrator’s password is blank and the Video Server initially will not ask

for any password. The Administrator should immediately implement a new password

as a matter of prudent security practice. Once the Administrator’s password is saved,

the Video Server will ask for the user’s name and password before each access. The

Administrator can set up a maximum of twenty (20) user accounts. Each user can

access the Video Server except to perform system configuration. Some critical

functions are exclusive for the Administrator, such as system configuration, user

administration, and software upgrades. The user name for the Administrator is

permanently assigned as “root”. Once the password is changed, the browser will

display an authentication window to ask for the new password. Once the password

is set, there is no provision to recover the Administrator’s password. The

only option is to restore to the original factory default settings.
