AP3916ic Integrated Camera Deployment
The AP3916ic features an integrated video camera, offering a
single device for wireless access and security purposes. Video management is provided by the
customer's Video Management System (VMS) integrated per ONVIF Profile S 2.4 compliance. The
camera deployment process is as follows:
- The AP3916ic is connected to the network and the controller discovers
the camera IP address.
Per ONVIF specification, video management systems
query network through WS-Discovery multicast (239.255.255.250). Allow multicast when
configuring the default camera topology.
- Client IP = IP address of camera module
- Device Type = Extreme Networks 2 MP Camera (EXTR2MP-CAM)
- AP = AP camera module is ‘associated‘ with Radio/Port = CAM
- Packet/Byte counters = Indicate Camera Activity
- Associate a WLAN (Wireless Local Area Network) B@AP or B@AC topology to the camera
port.
- The camera requests a DHCP address.
- The EWC Active Clients Report lists the IP address of the camera. You
can export the client IP address list to an XML file.
(Optional) The
camera IP address can be detected by third-party tools, such as ONVIF Device Manager.
Note
ExtremeWireless manages the AP and camera firmware revision. After initial connection,
the AP/camera may undergo a firmware upgrade. The upgrade process runs before the device
becomes fully active on the network.
- Based on the reported IP address of the camera, the user associates the
camera to the video surveillance system.
