34AXIS 216FD - System Options

Notes: •If the referrals feature is enabled and you wish to also allow normal access to the Live View page, the product's own IP address or host name must be added to the list of allowed referrers.

•Restricting referrers has no effect on an MPEG-4 video stream. To restrict an MPEG-4 stream, IP address filtering must be enabled.

•Restricting referrers is of greatest value when not using IP address filtering. If IP address filter- ing is used, then the allowed referrers are automatically restricted to those allowed IP addresses.

HTTPS

The AXIS 216FD supports encrypted browsing using HTTPS.

A self-signed certificate can be used until a Certificate Authority-issued certificate has been obtained. Click the Create self-signed Certificate button to install a self-signed certificate. Although self-signed certificates are free and offer some protection, true security will only be implemented after the installation of a signed certificate issued by a certificate authority.

A signed certificate can be obtained from an issuing Certificate Authority by clicking the Create Certificate Request button. When the signed certificate is returned, click the Install signed certificate button to import the certificate. The properties of any certificate request currently resident in the camera or installed can also be viewed by clicking the Properties... button. The HTTPS Connection Policy must also be set in the drop-down lists to enable HTTPS in the camera.

Date & Time

Current Server Time - displays the current date and time (24h clock). The time can be displayed in 12h clock format in the Overlay (see below).

New Server Time - Select your time zone from the drop-down list. If you want the server clock to automatically adjust for daylight savings time, select the Automatically adjust for daylight saving time changes.

From the Time Mode section, select the preferred method to use for setting the time:

•Synchronize with computer time - sets the time from the clock on your computer.

•Synchronize with NTP Server - the camera will obtain the time from an NTP server every 60 minutes.

•Set manually - this option allows you to manually set the time and date.

Note: • If using a host name for the NTP server, a DNS server must be configured under TCP/IP settings. See Network > TCP/IP below.
