32x). The higher the value, the brighter the image will be.
• Enable BLC (Back Light Compensation): Enable this option when the object is
too dark or too bright to recognize. It allows the camera to adjust to the best
light conditions in any environment and automatically give the necessary light
compensation.
You may click Preview to ne-tune the image, or click Restore to recall the original

Video Quality Setting for Stream 1~4
Compression Type: The compression level aects the amount of bandwidth
and storage required. Lower compression uses more bandwidth and storage but
delivers better image quality. Of the three options, H.264 consumes much less
network bandwidth compared to MPEG4 and JPEG.
Frame Size: Select proper frame size for dierent viewing devices, bigger frame size
requires more bandwidth, and storage usage. For smaller viewers, such as mobile
phones, a smaller frame size and lower frame rate is recommended. There are 5
options you can select: 176x144, 320x240, 640x480, 1280x720, 1280x800.
Frame Rate: This option aects the smoothness of the video. Select higher frame
rate for smoother video quality but it requires more storage usage. Ten options for
selection: customize, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30 fps (30 fps is recommended real-
time video on a computer monitor. 5 fps is ideal for mobile viewers.)
Intra Frame Period: Determines the frequency of the Iframe. The shorter the
duration, the more likely you will get better video quality, but at the cost of higher
network bandwidth consumption. Select the intra frame period from the following
durations: 1/4 second, 1/2 second, 1 second, 2 seconds, 3 seconds and 4 seconds.
Video Quality: This setting limits the maximum refresh frame rate.
• Constant bit rate: To set a xed bandwidth regardless of the video quality,
select Constant bit rate and the desired bandwidth from 20 Kbps to 8Mbps.
• Fixed quality: To optimize the bandwidth utilization and video quality, the
video quality can be adjusted to the following setting: Medium, Standard, Good,
Detailed and Excellent.

This section explains how to use the SNMP on the network camera. The Simple
Network Management Protocol is an application layer protocol that facilitates the
exchange of management information between network devices. It helps network
administrators to remotely manage network devices and nd, solve network
problems with ease.
The SNMP consists of the following three key components:
1. Manager: Network-Management Station (NMS), a server which executes
applications that monitor and control managed devices.
2. Agent: A network-management software module on a managed device which
transfers the status of managed devices to the NMS.
3. Managed device: A network node on a managed network. For example:
routers, switches, bridges, hubs, computer hosts, printers, IP telephones,
network cameras, web server, and database.

point/hub, and RADIUS server must support and enable 802.1x setting.
50D-Link DCS-3511/DCS-3530 User Manual
Conguration
The 802.1x standard is designed to enhance the security of local area networks,
which provides authentication to network devices (clients) attached to a network
port (wired or wireless). If all certicates between client and server are veried,
a point-to-point connection will be enabled. If authentication fails, access on
that port will be prohibited. 802.1x utilizes an existing protocol, the Extensible
Authentication Protocol (EAP), to facilitate communication.
Please follow the steps below to enable 802.1x setting:
1. Before connecting the camera to the protected network with 802.1x, apply
a digital certicate from a Certicate Authority (i.e., MIS of your company)
which can be validated by a RADIUS server.
2. Connect the camera to a computer outside of the protected LAN. Open the
conguration page of the camera as shown below. Select EAP-PEAP or EAP-
TLS as the EAP method. In the following elds, enter your ID and password
issued by the CA, then upload related certicate(s).
3. When all setting are complete, move the camera to the protected LAN by
connecting it to an 802.1x-enabled switch. The devices will then start the
authentication automatically.
QoS (Quality of Service)
Quality of Service refers to a resource reservation control mechanism, which
guarantees a certain quality to dierent services on the network. Quality of service
guarantees are important if the network capacity is insucient, especially for real-
time streaming multimedia applications. Quality can be dened as, for instance, a
maintained level of bit rate, low latency, no packet dropping, etc.
The following are the main benets of a QoS-aware network:
The ability to prioritize trac and guarantee a certain level of performance to the
data ow.
The ability to control the amount of bandwidth each application may use, and thus
provide higher reliability and stability on the network.

Conguration
Requirements for QoS:
To utilize QoS in a network environment, the following requirements must be met:
• All network switches and routers in the network must include support for QoS.
• The network video devices used in the network must be QoS-enabled.
CoS
IEEE802.1p denes a QoS model at OSI Layer 2 (Data Link Layer), which is called
CoS, Class of Service. It adds a 3-bit value to the VLAN MAC header, which indicates
prioritization from 0~7 (Eight dierent classes of service are available). The priority
is set up on the network switches, which then use dierent queuing disciplines to
forward the packets.
Please follow the steps below to enable CoS settings:
1. Click Enable CoS.
2. Enter the VLAN ID of your switch (0~4095).
3. Choose the priority for each application (0~7).
Note:
• The VLAN Switch (802.1p) is required. Web browsing may fail if the CoS setting
is incorrect.
• Class of Service technologies do not guarantee a level of service in terms of
bandwidth and delivery time. They only oer a "best-eort." Users can think
of CoS as "coarsely-grained" trac control and QoS as "nely-grained" trac
control.
• Though CoS is simple to manage, it lacks scalability and does not oer end-to-
end guarantees since it is based on L2 protocol.

QoS/DSCP
DSCP-ECN denes QoS at Layer 3 (Network Layer). The Dierentiated Services (DiServ) model is based on packet marking and router queuing
disciplines. The marking is done by adding a eld to the IP header, called the DSCP (Dierentiated Services Code Point). This is a 6-bit eld
that provides 64 dierent class IDs. It gives an indication of how a given packet is to be forwarded, known as the Per Hop Behavior (PHB). The
PHB describes a particular service level in terms of bandwidth, queuing theory, and dropping (discarding the packet) decisions. Routers at
each network node classify packets according to their DSCP value and give them a particular forwarding treatment. For example, how much
bandwidth should be reserved.
Quality of Service refers to a resource reservation control mechanism, which guarantees a certain quality to dierent services on the network.
Quality of service guarantees are important if the network capacity is insucient, especially for real-time streaming multimedia applications.
Quality can be dened as, for instance, a maintained level of bit rate, low latency, no packet dropping, etc.

Camera ID: This ID is the identier for RS-485 devices. IDs range from 1 to 255.
PTZ Driver: The camera supports Pelco D and P protocol PTZ drivers. If your PTZ scanner does not support it, select Custom camera (scanner).
Please refer to the user manual of your PTZ scanner to determine the Camera ID, PTZ driver, and Port setting.
Baud Rate: Baud Rate is a speed measurement for communication between a transmitter and receiver which indicates the number of bit
transfers per second. A higher baud rate will reduce the distance of the two devices (transmitter and receiver). Values range from 2400 (default)
to 19200 bps.
Data Bits: This value is the number of data bits in a transmission. The data bit can be 7 or 8 (default).
Stop Bits: The stop bit is used to signal the end of communication for a single packet. The more bits used for stop bits, the greater the lenience in
synchronizing the dierent clocks but the slower the data transmission rate. The stop bit can be set to 1 or 2. The default value is 1.
Parity Bit: Parity is a form of error checking used in serial communication. For even and odd parities, the serial port sets the parity bit (the last
bit after the data bits) to a value to ensure that the transmission has an even or odd number of logic high bits. For example, if the data is 011, for
even parity, the parity bit is 0 to keep the number of logic-high bits even. If the parity is odd, the parity bit is 1, resulting in 3 logic-high bits. Parity
can be set to No (none), Even, and Odd.
Preset Position: Clicking this button returns the camera to a preset position.
