4 Assign an IP address
To make it accessible on the network, the AXIS 221/223M must be assigned an IP address.
Depending on the number of cameras you wish to install, the recommended method for assigning IP addresses in Windows is either AXIS IP Utility or AXIS Camera Management. Use the method that best suits your purpose.
Both of these free applications are available on the Axis Network Video Product CD supplied with this product, or they can be downloaded from www.axis.com/techsup
| Method Recommended for Operating system | |||
![]() | AXIS IP UtilitySee page 7 | Single cameraSmall installations | Windows |
![]() | AXIS CameraManagementSee page 8 | Multiple camerasLarge installationsInstallation on a different subnet | Windows 2000Windows XP ProWindows 2003 Server |
Notes:
- A network DHCP server is optional.
• The AXIS 221/223M has the default IP address 192.168.0.90 - If assigning the IP address fails, check that there is no firewall blocking the operation.
- For other methods of assigning or discovering the IP address of the AXIS 221/223M, e.g. in other operating systems, see page 12.
AXIS IP Utility - single camera/small installation
AXIS IP Utility automatically discovers and displays Axis devices on your network. The application can also be used to manually assign a static IP address.

Accessing the AXIS 221/223M from the Internet
Once installed, your AXIS 221/223M is accessible on your local network (LAN). To access the camera from the Internet, network routers must be configured to allow incoming traffic, which is usually done on a specific port. Please refer to the documentation for your router for further instructions. For more information on this and other topics, visit the Axis Support Web at www.axis.com/techsup
Resetting to the Factory Default Settings

- Disconnect power from the camera.
- Press and hold the Control button and reconnect power.
- Keep the Control button pressed until the Status indicator displays amber (this may take up to 15 seconds), then release the button.
- When the Status indicator displays green (which can take up to 1 minute) the process is complete and the camera has been reset.
- Re-assign the IP address, using one of the methods described in this document.
It is also possible to reset parameters to the original factory default settings via the web interface. For more information, please see the online help or the user's manual.
