AXIS M1011/M1011-W/M1031-W - Accessing the Camera

Setting the root password over a secure connection

To gain access to the product, you must set the password for the default administrator user - ‘root’. This is done in the ‘Configure Root Password’ dialog, which appears when the network camera 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 (see notes below).

To set the password via a standard HTTP connection, enter it directly in the first dialog shown below.

To set the password via an encrypted HTTPS connection, follow these steps:

1.Click the Create self-signed certificate button.

2.Provide the requested information and click OK. The certificate is created and the password can now be set securely. All traffic to and from the network camera is encrypted from this point on.

3.Enter a password and then re-enter it to confirm the spelling. Click OK. The password has now been configured.

To create an HTTPS connection, click this button.

To configure the password directly via an unencrypted connection, enter the password here.

Notes:

HTTPS (Hypertext Transfer Protocol over SSL) is a protocol used to encrypt the traffic between web browsers and servers. The HTTPS certificate controls the encrypted exchange of information.

The default administrator user root cannot be deleted.

If the password for root is lost or forgotten, the network camera must be reset to the factory default settings. See page 35.

A warning may pop up in the browser due to the fact that the certificate is self-signed and not signed by a Trusted Certificate Authority (CA).
