2. HTTPS

<HTTPS> allows secure connections between the IP Camera and web browser using
<Secure Socket Layer (SSL)> or <Transport Layer Security (TLS)>, which ensure
camera settings or Username / Password info from snooping. It is required to install a
self-signed certificate or a CA-signed certificate for implementing <HTTPS>.
To use HTTPS on the IP Camera, a HTTPS certificate must be installed. The HTTPS
certificate can be obtained by either creating and sending a certificate request to a
Certificate Authority (CA) or creating a self-signed HTTPS certificate, as described below.

- Create Self-signed Certificate

Before a CA-issued certificate is obtained, users can create and install a self-signed
certificate first.

Click on <Create> button under “Create self-signed certificate” and provide the
requested information to install a self-signed certificate for the IP Camera. Please refer
to the last part of this section:

NOTE: The self-signed certificate does not provide the same high level of security as
when using a CA-issued certificate.

-Install Signed Certificate

Click on the <Create Certificate Request> button to create and submit a certificate
request in order to obtain a signed certificate from CA.

Provide the request information in the create dialog. Please refer to the following

Provide the Certificate Information

for more details.

When the request is complete, the subject of the Created Request will be shown in the
field. Click on <Properties> below the Subject field, copy the PEM-formatted request
and send it to the selected CA.

When the signed certificate is returned, install it by uploading the signed certificate.

-Provide the Certificate Information

To create a Self-signed HTTPS Certificate or a Certificate Request to CA, please enter

QoS allows providing differentiated service levels for different types of traffic packets,
which guarantees delivery of priority services especially when network congestion occurs.
Adapting the Differentiated Services (DiffServ) model, traffic flows are classified and
marked with DSCP (DiffServ Codepoint) values, and thus receive the corresponding
forwarding treatment from DiffServ capable routers.

The DSCP value range is from 0 to 63. The default DSCP value is 0, which means
DSCP is disabled. The IP Camera uses the following QoS Classes: Video, Audio and
Management.

z Video DSCP

The class consists of applications such as MJPEG over HTTP, RTP/RTSP and
RTSP/HTTP.

z Audio DSCP

This setting is only available for the IP Cameras that support audio.
