AXIS 282/AXIS 282A - System Options
Notes:
•
If the referrals feature is enabled and you wish to also allow normal access to the Live View
page, the product's own IP address or host name must be added to the list of allowed referrers.
•Restricting referrers has no effect on an MPEG-4 video stream. To restrict an MPEG-4 stream, IP
address filtering must be enabled.
•Restricting referrers is of greatest value when not using IP address filtering. If IP address filter-
ing is used, then the allowed referrers are automatically restricted to those allowed IP
addresses.
HTTPS
For greater security, the AXIS 282/AXIS 282A can be configured to use HTTPS (Hypertext
Transfer Protocol over SSL (Secure Socket Layer)). That is, all communication that would
otherwise go via HTTP will instead go via an encrypted HTTPS connection.
Certificate
- to use HTTPS for communication with the AXIS 282/AXIS 282A, a
Certificate
must be created using one of these methods:
• A self-signed certificate can be created in the Video Server, but this does not guarantee
the same level of security as an official certificate.
• An official certificate issued by a CA (Certificate Authority). A CA issues and manages
security credentials and public keys for message encryption.

signed certificate...
to install the certificate in the AXIS 282/AXIS 282A.
