9.3.2.2 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.
To create a self-signed certificate
Before a CA-issued certificate is obtained, users can first create and install a self-signed certificate.
Under the Security category, click the HTTPS tab in the sidebar to display the following screen.
