Its work processes in the network video system are as follows:
Step 1: IP Camera sends the network access request to switch or AP (Access Point);
Step 2: Switch or AP sends this request to authentication server, such as RADIUS server (Remote
Authentication Dial In User Service) - Microsoft Internet Authentication Service.
Step 3: If the validation is successful, the server informs switch or AP
of opening port, and allows IP Camera’s
data to be sent through the switch on the network.

3.5.5.3 HTTPS Configure
HTTPS (Hyper Text Transfer Protocol over Secure Socket Layer) is equivalent to HTTP. The one key difference:
HTTPS transmitted data uses SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) or TLS (Transport Layer Security) encryption. This
security method encrypts the data itself. This product has HTTPS built-in supporting ability in order to guarantee
the web browser to view the video safely. However, using HTTPS will reduce the communication links’ speed and
affect video frame rate.
3.5.5.4 RTSP Authentication
When RTSP request is being sent, IP Camera needs to carry authentication information after enabling the RTSP
authentication function.
