AXIS Q1602-E/AXIS Q1604-E Installation Guide

Set the password

To gain access to the product, the password for the default administrator user root must be set. This is done in the ‘Configure Root Password’ dialog, which is displayed when the network camera is accessed for the first time.

To prevent network eavesdropping when setting the root password, this can be done via an encrypted HTTPS connection, which requires an HTTPS certificate.

Note:

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.

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, start by clicking this button.

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

4.To log in, enter the user name “root” in the dialog as requested. The default administrator user name root cannot be deleted.

5.Enter the password as set above, and click OK. If the password is lost, the camera must be reset to the factory default settings. See page 23.
