Accessing the AXIS 215 PTZ-E from the Internet

Once installed, your AXIS 215 PTZ-E 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.
