Documentation for Axxon Next 3.5.1. Documentation for other versions of Axxon Next is [available too].

The web server allows accessing Axxon Next remotely over the Internet (see Working with Axxon Next Through the Mobile Clients, Working with Axxon Next Through the Web Client).

Attention

The web server recodes the video that it receives, by using the MJPEG compression algorithm. This codec can cause the bitrate (Mb/s) to become very large.

To configure the web server in the Axxon Next software package:

  1. Select a Server object.
  2. If you want for the web server to start at the same time as the Server in the Axxon Next software package, set the Autorun setting to Yes (1). The default value is Yes.
  3. If you want to disable the web server, set the value of Started to No (2).

  4. In the corresponding fields, enter the user name and password for connecting to the web server (3).

    Attention!

    The user name for connecting to the web server must consist entirely of characters in the ASCII 128-character set: English letters, Arabic numerals, punctuation marks, and some control characters

  5. In the Port field, enter the port number on which the web server will be located (4).
  6. In the Prefix field, enter the prefix that is added to the server address (5).
  7. In the Group list, select the group of video cameras that you want to make accessible on the web server (6).
  8. Click the Apply button.

The web server is now configured and available over the Internet at the following address: http://<IP address of Axxon Next Server>:<Port>/<Prefix>. For example, if the server's IP address is 10.0.11.1, the port is 8000, and the prefix is /asip-api, then the web server can be accessed at the following address: http://10.0.11.1:8000/asip-api.
