AXIS Q1604 Network Camera
Accessing the product
Access from the Internet
Once connected, the Axis product is accessible on your local network (LAN). To access the product from the Internet you must
configure your network router to allow incoming data traffic to the product. To do this, e nable the NAT-traversal feature , which
will attempt to automatically configure the router to allow access to the product. This is enabled from Setup > System Options >
Network > TCP/IP A d vanced.
For more information, please see
NAT traversal (port mapping) for IPv4, on page 38
. See also AXIS Internet Dynamic DNS Service at
www.axiscam.net For Technical notes on this and other topics, visit the Axis Support web at www.axis.com\techsup
Set the root password
To gain access to the Axis product, you must set the password for the d efa ult administrator user root. This is done in the Configure
Root Password dialog, which appears when the product is accessed for the first time .
To prevent network eavesdropping, the root password can be set via an encrypted HTTPS connection, which requires an HTTPS
certificate. HTTPS (Hypertext Transfer Protocol over SSL) is a protocol used to encrypt traffic between web browsers and servers. The
HTTPS certificate ensures encrypted exchange of information.
To set the password via a standard HTTP connection, enter it directly in the first dialog.
To set the password via an encrypted HTTPS connection, follow these steps:
1. Click Create self-signed certificate.
2. Provide the requested information and click OK.Thecertificate is created and the password can now be set securely. All
traffic to and from the product is encrypted from this point on.
3. Enter a password and then re-ente r to confirm the spelling. Click OK. The password has now been configured.
Note
• The default administrator user name root is permanent and cannot be deleted.
• If the password for root is lost, the product must be reset to the factory default setting s. See
Reset to factory default
settings, on page 43
.
