HTTP Authentication Setting
HTTP Authentication identifies whether a user is authorised to access the
camera. Users are required to enter a valid user name and password before
they can log on to the camera. Two types of authentication are available.
Basic
This type provides basic protection against unauthorised access. It is
supported by most browsers. Note that passwords are sent over the
network in clear text. If intercepted they can be reused by unauthorised
users. Select this type only if you are using an SSL connection or a
dedicated line.
Digest
This type is a more secure option. It encrypts the password before
sending it over the network.
Streaming Authentication Setting
This setting provides security against unauthorised users attempting to open a
stream via the Real Time Streaming Protocol (RTSP). If the setting is enabled,
users are required to enter their user name and password before viewing the
live streams. There are three security modes available: Disable, Basic and
Digest.
13
Disable
If the disable mode is selected, no security is provided to prevent
unauthorised access. Users are not asked to provide their user name
and password for authentication.
Basic
This mode provides basic protection for the live streams. There is still
the risk of the password being intercepted.
Digest
Digest mode is a safer option for protection. The password is sent in an
encrypted format to prevent it from being stolen.
NOTE: Users must click the <Save> button to apply the setting.
2.2.2.2 HTTPS
The HTTPS setting can be found under this path: System> Security> HTTPS.
HTTPS allows secure connections between the IP camera and web browser
using <Secure Socket Layer (SSL)> or <Transport Layer Security (TLS)>, which
protect camera settings or user name / password info against snooping. To
implement HTTPS, a self-signed certificate or a CA-signed certificate must be
installed.
To use HTTPS on the IP camera, an 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.
Click <Create> and provide the information required to install a self-signed
certificate for the camera. See the last part of the Provide the Certificate
Information section for more details.
NOTE: The self-signed certificate does not provide the same high level
of security as the CA-issued certificate.
14
Install Signed Certificate
Click the <Create Certificate Request> button to create and submit a certificate
request in order to obtain a signed certificate from a CA.
Provide the request information in the create dialogue. See the following section
Provide the Certificate Information for more details.
When the request is complete, the subject of the Created Request is shown in
the text box. Click <Properties> below the Subject box, copy the PEM-formatted
request, and then send it to the selected CA.
When the signed certificate is returned, install it by uploading the signed
certificate.

2.2.2.3 IP Filter
The IP Filter setting can be found under this path: System> Security> IP Filter.
With the IP Filter function, users can allow or deny access to the camera from
specific IP addresses.
Enable IP Filter
Select the box to enable the IP Filter function. Once enabled, the listed
IP addresses (IPv4) in the <Filtered IP Addresses> list box are
allowed/denied access to the camera.
Click <Allow> or <Deny> in the drop-down list and click on the <Apply>
button to determine the IP filter behaviour.
Add IP Address
Type the IP address in the text box under the <Filtered IP Address> list
and click <Add>. The newly added address is shown in the list. Up to
256 IP addresses can be specified.
To filter a group of IP addresses, type an address in the text box,
followed by a slash and a number ranging from 1 to 31, such as
192.168.2.81/30, for example. The number after the slash defines how
many IP addresses will be filtered. For details, see the following
example.
16
Example: Filtering a group of consecutive IP addresses
The steps below show what is filtered when 192.168.2.81/30 is
entered.
Step 1: Convert 192.168.2.81 to binary format. The binary digits are
11000000.10101000.00000010.01010001. See Appendix B: IP
Addresses from Decimal to Binary for conversion of IP addresses to
binary format. The number “30” after the slash refers to the first 30
digits of the binary number.
Step 2: Convert a few IP addresses before and after 192.168.2.81
to binary format. Then compare their first 30 digits to the binary
format of 192.168.2.81.
a. Convert 192.168.2.80 to binary. The binary representation is
11000000.10101000.00000010.01010000. The first 30 digits
are the same as the binary digits of 192.168.2.81. Therefore
192.168.2.80 is filtered.
b. Convert 192.168.2.79 to binary. The binary representation is
11000000.10101000.00000010.01001111. The first 30 digits
are different from the binary digits of 192.168.2.81. Therefore,
192.168.2.79 is not filtered. This also means that the IP
addresses preceding 192.168.2.79 are not filtered.
c. Repeat the procedure given in a” with the IP addresses
following 192.168.2.81. Stop when the situation described in
“b” occurs – that is, the 30th digit of the binary format of IP
address 192.168.2.84 is different, and is not filtered.
As a result, the IP addresses 192.168.2.80 to 192.168.2.83 are
filtered when entering 192.168.2.81/30. The following table clearly
shows that the 30th digit of the binary format of IP addresses
192.168.79 and 192.168.84 differ from the others. Therefore, these
two IP addresses are not filtered.

Settings, and then click Static IP. You can then provide the camera with
an appropriate IP address, netmask, and gateway address for the
desired network configuration.
IP address
This is necessary for network identification.
Subnet mask
This is used to determine if the destination is in the same subnet.
The default value is “255.255.255.0”.
Default gateway
This is the gateway used to forward frames to destinations in
different subnets. An invalid gateway setting prevents transmissions
to destinations in different subnets.
Primary DNS
Primary DNS is the primary domain name server that translates host
names into IP addresses.
Secondary DNS
Secondary DNS is a secondary domain name server that backs up
the primary DNS.
Use PPPoE
For PPPoE users, enter the PPPoE user name and password into the
text boxes, and click <Save> to complete configuring the setting.

Advanced
This section describes the Web Server port, RTSP port, MJPEG over HTTP port,
and HTTPS port settings.
Web Server port
The default web server port is 80. With the default web server port set to
‘80’, users can simply enter the IP address of the camera in the URL bar
of a web browser to connect to the camera. If the web server port is
changed to any number other than 80, users have to enter the camera’s
IP address followed by a colon and the port number. For example, a
camera with IP address 192.168.0.100 and web server port 8080 can be
accessed by entering “http://192.168.0.100:8080” in the URL bar.
RTSP port
The default setting of RTSP Port is 554; the setting range is from 1024
to 65535.
MJPEG over HTTP port
The default setting of MJPEG over HTTP Port is 8008; the setting range
is from 1024 to 65535.
HTTPS port
The default setting of HTTPS Port is 443; the setting range is from 1024
to 65535.
NOTE: Make sure that the port numbers set above are unique,
otherwise a network conflict may occur.
IPv6 Address Configuration
If the network supports IPv6, users can select the <Enable IPv6> check box and
click <Save>. An IPv6 address is displayed next to <Address> and users can
use it to connect to the camera.
23
2.2.3.2 QoS
The QoS (Quality of Service) setting can be found under this path: System>
Network> QoS.
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.
DSCP Settings
The DSCP value range is from 0 to 63. The default DSCP value is 0, which
means DSCP is disabled. The camera uses the following QoS Classes: Video,
Audio, and Management.
Video DSCP
This class applies to applications such as MJPEG over HTTP,
RTP/RTSP, and RTSP/HTTP.
Audio DSCP
This setting is available for IP cameras which support audio.
Management DSCP
This class applies to HTTP traffic: Web browsing.
NOTE: To enable this function, make sure the switches/routers in the
network support QoS.
24
2.2.3.3 SNMP
The SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) setting can be found under
this path: System> Network> SNMP.
With Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) support, the IP camera
can be monitored and managed remotely by the network management system.
SNMP v1/v2
Enable SNMP v1/v2
Select the version of SNMP to use by selecting the box.
Read Community
Specify the community name that has read-only access to all supported
SNMP objects. The default value is “public”.
Write Community
Specify the community name that has read/write access to all supported
SNMP objects (except read-only objects). The default value is “private”.
SNMP v3
SNMP v3 supports an enhanced security system that provides protection
against unauthorised users and ensures the privacy of the messages. Users are
requested to enter a security name, authentication password, and encryption
password when setting the camera connections in the network management
system. With SNMP v3, the messages sent between the cameras and the
network management system are encrypted to ensure privacy.
Enable SNMP v3
Enable SNMP v3 by selecting the box.
Security Name
The maximum length of the security name is 32 characters.
NOTE: Valid characters are A-Z, a-z, 0-9, !#$%&’-.@^_~.
Authentication Type
Two authentication types are available: MD5 and SHA. Select SHA for a
higher security level.
25
Authentication Password
The authentication password must be eight characters or more. The
input characters/numbers are displayed as dots for security purposes.
NOTE: Valid characters are A-Z, a-z, 0-9, !#$%&’-.@^_~.
Encryption Type
Two encryption types are available: DES and AES. Select AES for a
higher security level.
Encryption Password
The minimum length of the encryption password is eight characters and
the maximum length is 512 characters. The input characters/numbers
are displayed as dots for security purposes. The encryption password
can also be left blank. In that case, the messages are not encrypted to
protect privacy.
NOTE: Valid characters are A-Z, a-z, 0-9, !#$%&’-.@^_~.
Traps for SNMP v1 / v2 / v3
Traps are used by the camera to send messages to a management system on
important events or status changes.
Enable Traps
Select the box to activate trap reporting.
Trap address
Enter the IP address of the management server.
Trap community
Enter the community to use when sending a trap message to the
management system.
Trap Option
Warm Start
A Warm Start SNMP trap signifies that the SNMP device, such as the IP
camera, reinitialises itself by performing a software reload.
Click <Save> when finished.

2.2.3.4 UPnP
The UPnP setting can be found under this path: System> Network> UPnP.
UPnP Setting
Enable UPnP
If enabled, UPnP allows the camera to advertise its presence and
services to control points (for example, a VMS) on the network. The icon
of the connected camera appears in My Network Places to allow direct
access.
NOTE: To enable this function, make sure that UPnP is installed
on the computer. See Appendix A: Install UPnP components for
the UPnP installation procedure.
Enable UPnP port forwarding
When UPnP port forwarding is enabled, the IP camera is allowed to
open the web server port on the router automatically.
NOTE: To enable this function, make sure that the router
supports UPnP and that it is activated.
Friendly name
Set the name that the IP camera will use to identify itself on the network
Click <Save> when finished.
27
2.2.4 DDNS
The DDNS setting can be found under this path: System> DDNS.
The Dynamic Domain Name System (DDNS) allows a host name to be
constantly synchronised with a dynamic IP address. In other words, it allows
those using a dynamic IP address to be associated with a static domain name,
so that others can connect to it by name.
Enable DDNS
Select the item to enable DDNS.
Provider
Select one DDNS host from the provider list.
Host name
Enter the registered domain name in the field.
Username/E-mail
Enter the user name or email required by the DDNS provider for authentication.

2.2.5 Mail
The Mail setting can be found under this path: System> Mail.
The administrator can send an email via Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP)
when event is triggered. SMTP is a protocol for sending email messages
between servers. SMTP is a relatively simple, text-based protocol, where one or
more recipients of a message are specified and the message text is transferred.
Two sets of SMTP can be configured. Each set includes SMTP Server, Server
Port, Account Name, Password and Email Address settings. Select the box
“SMTP SSL” to send emails via encrypted transmission. For SMTP server
details, contact the network service provider for more specific information.
Click <Save> when finished.
2.2.6 FTP
The FTP setting can be found under this path: System> FTP.
The administrator can configure the camera to send an alarm message to up to
two FTP sites. Enter the FTP details, which include a server, server port, user
name, password and remote folder. Select the box “passive mode” to be
connected with the FTP server by passively receiving the FTP server’s IP
address through a dynamic port. Alternatively, clear the box to directly connect
to the FTP server via active mode.
Click <Save> when finished.
