AXIS Q6032 PTZ Dome Network Camera
System Options
To access a network protected by IEEE 802.1X, devices must authenticate themselves. The authentication is performed by a
third-party entity called an authentication server, typically a
RADIUS server
, examples of which are FreeRADIUS and Microsoft
Internet Authentication Service.
In Axis' implementation, the network device and the authentication server authenticate themselves with the help of digital
certi
fi
cates using EAP-TLS (Extensible Authentication Protocol - Transport Layer Security). The certi
fi
cates are provided by an
Certi
fi
cation Authority
(CA). You need:
• a CA certi
fi
cate to validate the identity of the authentication server
• a CA-signed client certi
fi
cate and a private key to authenticate the network device.
To allow the network device to access a network protected by IEEE 802.1X:
1. Obtain a CA certi
fi
cate, a client certi
fi
cate and a client private key (contact your network administrator).
2. Go to
Setup > System Options > Security > IEEE 802.1X
and upload the CA certi
fi
cate, the client certi
fi
cate and the
client private key.
3. Under
Settings
, select the EAPOL version, provide your EAP identity and private key password.
4. Check the box to enable IEEE 802.1X and click
Save
.
