The PPPoE interface is shown as in Figure 5-33.

Enter the PPPoE username and password which are provided by ISP (Internet Service Provider), and click “Enable”. The network camera will automatically establish network connection in the mode of PPPoE after it is enabled, after it is successful, the IP of the “IP Address” will be automatically modified into the dynamic IP address of the acquired WAN.

Note:

After PPPoE dial-up is successful, it needs to log in the device via the IP which is set before dial-up; in the PPPoE setup interface, it will display the registered IP address, and then it can visit the IP address via client.

Please disable UPnP when clicking PPPoE enable, which is to avoid causing influence to PPPoE dial-up.

5.2.14 QoS

The QoS interface is shown as below. See Figure 5-50.

Qos (Quality of Service) is network security mechanism. It is a technology to fix the network delay and jam problem and etc. For the network service, the quality of service includes the transmission bandwidth, delay, the packet loss and etc. We can guarantee the transmission bandwidth, lower the delay, and reduce the loss of the data packet and anti-dither to enhance the quality.

We can set the DSCP (Differentiated Services Code Point) of the IP to distinguish the data packet so that the router or the hub can provide different services for various data packets. It can select the different queues according to the priority (64 different priority levels) of the packets and select the bandwidth of the each queue. Level 0 is the lowest, and level 63 is the highest. It can also discard at the different ratio when the broad bandwidth is jam.

5.3.4.3 Abandoned Object

Abandoned object means the system will trigger alarm if the abandoned object in the monitoring scene exceeds the time which has been set by the users.

Abandoned object and missing object can be confusing in a situation where both foreground and background are complicated.

It also triggers alarm as abandoned object if there is pedestrian or vehicle staying still for too long. In order to filter this kind of alarm, generally the abandoned object is smaller than people and vehicle; therefore it can filter the people and vehicle via setting size. Besides, it can avoid the false alarm caused by short stay of people via extending alarm time properly.

Application scene: It can be applied to the scene where the target is sparse and there is no obvious and frequent light change. False alarm will be increased in the scene with high target density and frequent blocking; false alarm will be increased in the scene where there are more people staying. As for the detection area, try to make it simple, the function is not suitable for the area which is too complicated.

5.3.4.4 Missing Object

Missing object means the system will trigger alarm if it exceeds certain amount of time after the target is taken away from the original scene.

The system can make statistics of the still areas in the foreground area and distinguish if it is missing object or abandoned object according to the similarity between foreground and background, it will trigger alarm when it exceeds the time which is set by users.

Because the system distinguishes abandoned object from missing object according to the similarity of foreground and background, it may cause error between abandoned object and missing object in a situation where both foreground and background are complicated.

Application scene: it can be applied to the scene where the target is sparse and there is no obvious and frequent light change. False alarm will be increased in the scene where the target density is high and there is frequent obstruction; the false alarm will be increased in the scene where there are more people staying. As for the detection area, try to make it simple, the function is not suitable for the area which is too complicated.
