enables secure port authentication.
PEAP: By this method, an EAP password is used for the
supplicant authentication and a certificate is used for
server authentication.

certificate is imported, displayed or deleted for the
camera authentication.

imported.
Click the OK button appearing on the dialog, and the
selected file will be imported to the camera.

To display the information of the client
certificate
When the client certificate has been saved in the camera
correctly, its information appears on Status, Issuer DN,
Subject DN, Available period and Extended Key
Usage.
Status
Shows if the status of the client certificate is valid or
invalid. The following statuses are recognized.
Valid means the client certificate is correctly stored
and set.
Invalid means the client certificate is not correctly
stored and set.
Possible causes of Invalid are as follows:
– The private key password included in the client
certificate is not specified correctly.
– The private key password is specified in spite of
the fact that the key pair in the client certificate is
not encrypted.
– The key pair is not included in the client certificate.
Note
When the client certificate to be imported is of
PKCS#12 format and the private key password is not set
correctly, "<Put correct private key password>" is
displayed in the boxes of Issuer DN, Subject DN,
Available period and Extended Key Usage. Specify
the correct private key password to confirm the
information of the certificate.
To delete the client certificate
Click Delete, and the client certificate stored in the
camera will be deleted.
Private key password
Type the password for the private key information
included in the client certificate using up to
50 characters.

If a private key password is already set, it is displayed as
turned letters.

To change the private key password, click this button.
The current password is cleared and the password text
box is actived to allow new password entry.
