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. Under the Security
category, click the HTTPS tab in the sidebar to display the following screen.
To create a self-signed certificate:
Before a CA-issued certificate is obtained, you can first create and install a self-signed certificate.
1. On the HTTPS page, click Create under Create self-signed certificate.
2. Provide the requested information to install a self-signed certificate for the camera. Refer to
Provide the Certificate Information in this section for details.
