HTTPS
To use HTTPS on the camera, an HTTPS certificate must be installed. The HTTPS certificate can be
obtained either by creating and sending a certificate request to a Certificate Authority (CA) or by
creating a self-signed HTTPS certificate as described below.
Note:
The self-signed certificate does not provide the same level of security as a
CA-issued certificate.
HTTPS allows secure connections between the camera and web browser using Secure Socket Layer
(SSL) or Transport Layer Security (TLS) to protect camera settings and username/password info. A
self-signed certificate or a CA-signed certificate is required to implement HTTPS. Under the
Security
category, click the
HTTPS
tab in the sidebar to display the following screen.
