Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) can automatically configure your router to open ports to the internet without your explicit knowledge. Disable UPnP within the camera's network settings interface and manually manage your port forwarding rules on your edge router. 3. Restrict Access via IP Filtering
When the Axis 206M was introduced, the concept of the Internet of Things (IoT) was in its infancy. Network security protocols were often overlooked by consumers. Many users plugged their Axis 206M cameras directly into their internet modems, configured port forwarding so they could view their home or office while away, and left the default factory settings intact.

Place legacy IoT devices on a dedicated Virtual Local Area Network (VLAN) isolated from critical data environments (like PCs containing financial or personal data). If a camera is compromised, the attacker cannot easily pivot to more sensitive machines on the network. Conclusion
When Axis Communications released the AXIS 206M, it marked a significant milestone in digital surveillance. Most network cameras of that era operated on standard VGA resolution (640x480 pixels). The 206M broke industry norms by offering a 1.3-megapixel sensor, delivering a resolution of 1280x1024 pixels.
