IEEE 802.1X

IEEE 802.1X is a standard for port-based Network Admission Control providing secure authentication of wired and wireless

network devices. IEEE 802.1X is based on EAP (Extensible Authentication Protocol).

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 certificates using EAP-TLS (Extensible Authentication Protocol - Transport Layer Security).

The certificates are provided by an Certification Authority (CA). You need:

• a CA certificate to validate the identity of the authentication server

• a CA-signed client certificate 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 certificate, a client certificate and a client private key (contact your network administrator).

2. Go to Setup > System Options > Security > IEEE 802.1X and upload the CA certificate, the client certificate 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.

Certificates

CA Certificate - The CA certificate is used to validate the identity of the authentication server. Enter the path to the

certificate directly, or locate the file using the Browse button. Then click Upload. To remove a certificate, click Remove.

Client Certificate/Client private key - The client certificate and private key are used to authenticate the network device.

They can be uploaded as separate files or in one combined file (e.g. a PFX file or a PEM file). Use the Client private key field if

uploading one combined file. For each file, enter the path to the file, or locate the file using the Browse button. Then click

Upload. To remove a file, click Remove.

Settings

Eapol version - Select the EAPOL version (1 or 2) as used in your network switch.

Eap identity - Enter the user identity (maximum 16 characters) associated with your certificate.

Private key password - Enter the password (maximum 16 characters) for the private key.

Enable IEEE 802.1X - Check the box to enable the IEEE 802.1X protocol.

Audio Support

Enabling audio support from this page will allow clients to retrieve audio streams from the network camera.

Date & Time

Current Server Time - Displays the current date and time (24h clock). The time can be displayed in 12h clock format in the

overlay (see below).

New Server Time - Select your time zone from the drop-down list. If you want the server clock to automatically adjust for

daylight savings time, select the Automatically adjust for daylight saving time changes option.

From the Time Mode section, select the preferred method to use for setting the time:

• Synchronize with computer time - sets the time from the clock on your computer.
