HTTPS
HTTPS (HyperText Transfer Protocol over Secure 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 level provided by HTTPS is considered adequate for most commercial exchanges.
The Axis product can be configured to require HTTPS when users from different 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 43.
To enable HTTPS 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 for the different user groups.
5.Click Save to enable the settings.
To access the Axis product via the desired protocol, enter https:// or http:// in the address field in a browser.
The HTTPS port can be changed on the System Options > Network > TCP/IP > Advanced page.
