Security

Users

User access control is enabled by default. An administrator can set up other users, by giving them user names and passwords.

It is also possible to allow anonymous viewer login, which means that anybody may access the Live View page:

The user list displays the authorized users and user groups (levels):

HTTP/RTSP Password Settings - Select the type of password. You may need to allow unencrypted passwords if there are

viewing clients that do not support encryption, or if you recently upgraded the firmware and the existing clients support

encryption, but need to log in again, and be configured to use this functionality.

User Settings - Check the option your require.

• Enabling anonymous viewer login - allows any viewer direct access to the Live View page.

• The Enable anonymous PTZ control login option allows anonymous users to join a queue for gaining control of the

PTZ controls provided by the Network Camera. See PTZ, on page 27 for more information on Pan Tilt Zoom settings.

• Enable Basic Setup - Before using the Network Camera, there are certain settings that should be defined, most of

which require Administrator access privileges. You can quickly access these settings through Basic Setup in the menu.

All settings are also available from the standard Setup link in the menu. Basic Setup is enabled by default but can be

disabled and removed from the menu.

IP Address Filter

Enable IP Address Filtering to allow or deny access to the network cameras. Once enabled, the IP addresses in the list are

allowed or denied access according to the choice made in the drop-down list Allow/Deny the following IP addresses.

The administrator can add up to 256 IP address entries to the list (a single entry can contain multiple IP addresses). The users

from these IP addresses need to be specified in the user list with the appropriate access rights. This is done from Setup >

System Options > Security > Users.

HTTPS

The network cameras support encrypted browsing using HTTPS.

A self-signed certificate can be used until a Certificate Authority-issued certificate has been obtained. Click the Create

self-signed Certificate button to install a self-signed certificate. Although self-signed certificates are free and offer some

protection, true security is only implemented after the installation of a signed certificate issued by a certificate authority.

A signed certificate can be obtained from an issuing Certificate Authority by clicking the Create Certificate Request button.

When the signed certificate is returned, click the Install signed certificate button to import the certificate. The properties of

any certificate request currently resident in the camera or installed can also be viewed by clicking the Properties... button. The

HTTPS Connection Policy must also be set in the drop-down lists to enable HTTPS in the camera.
