Follow the instructions given in the User Manual, at http://www.axis.com/support/tecnical-notes/how-to-upgrade, or howtoupgrade.txt, which is included in the firmware folder. New features in 7.20.1 since 7.10.1 ====================================================================== 7.20.1:F1 The functionality of enabling Axis DNS Service via control button has been disabled by default. It can be enabled again using VAPIX. 7.20.1:F2 Changed the default web server authentication from Basic & Digest to Digest only. 7.20.1:F3 Upon a factory default, the camera will generate a self-signed certificate at boot and enable HTTPS. This allows clients to use encrypted access from start. If HTTPS is to be used in daily operations, it is recommended to replace the generated self-signed certificate with a CA-signed certificate. 7.20.1:F4 Apache web server has been updated to version 2.4.25. 7.20.1:F5 Support for 24bit LPCM audio mode. 7.20.1:F6 OpenSSL has been updated to version 1.0.2k to increase overall minimum cyber security level. 7.20.1:F7 Support for AXIS SD card health API. The SD card health API allows a client to track and request the health and wear-out state of an camera with AXIS Surveillance SD Card. 7.20.1:F8 The Axis Media Control (AMC) is not longer embedded in the product and needs to be downloaded separately on https://www.axis.com/global/en/support/downloads /axis-media-control if needed. The Java Applet has been removed as well. 7.20.1:F9 Pressing "Download the server report" in System -> Maintenance will now automatically attach a snapshot of the image to the .zip file in order to simplify support. New features in 7.10.1 since 5.85.4.2 ======================================================================== 7.10.1:F1 Our ONVIF implementation have been improved by adding GetVideoEncoderConfigurationOptions extension.
