AXIS M1143–L
System Options
HTTPS
HTTPS (HyperTe xt Transfer Protocol over Se c ure Socket Layer, or HTTP over SSL) is a web protocol providing encrypted browsing.
HTTPS can also be used by users and clients to verify that the correct device is being accessed. The security le vel provided by
HTTPS is considered adequate for most comm ercial exchanges.
The Axis product can be configur ed to require HTTPS when users from d iffe re nt user groups (administrator, operator, viewer) connect.
To use HTTPS, an HTTPS certificate must first be installed. Go to System Options > Security > Certificates to install and manage
certificates. See
Certificates on page 35
.
To enable H TTPS on the Axis product:
1. Go to System Options > Security > HTTPS
2. Select an HTTPS certificate from the list of installed certificates.
3. Optionally, click Ciphers and select the encryption algorithms to use for SSL.
4. Set the HTTPS Connection Policy forthedifferentusergroups.
5. Click Save to enab le the settings.
To access the Axis product via the desired protocol, enter https:// or http:// in the address fi eld in a browser.
The HTTPS port can be changed on the System Options > Network > TCP/IP > A dvanced page.
IEEE 802.1X
IEEE 802.1X is a standard for port-based Network A dmission Control providing secure authentication of wired and wireless ne
twork
devices. IEEE 802.1X is based on EAP (Extensible Authentication P rotocol).
To access a network protected by IEEE 802.1X, devices must authenticate themselves. The authentication is performed by a
third-party entity called an authentic ation server, typically a RADIUS server, examples of which are FreeRADIUS and Microsoft
Internet Authentication Service.
In Ax is' implem enta tion, the netw ork device and the authent
ication server authenticate themselves with the help of dig ital
certificates using EAP-TLS (Extensible Authentication Protocol - Transport Layer Security). The certificates are provided by an
Certification Authority (CA ). You need:
•aCAcertifica te to validate the identity of the authentication server
• a CA-signed c lient certificate and a private key to authenticate the network device.
To allow the network d evice 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 p
rivate key.
3. Und
er 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.
