Set the root password
To gain access to the Axis 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 product is a

To prevent network eavesdropping, the root passwo
rd can be set via an encrypted HTTPS connection, which requires an H TTPS
certificate. HTTPS (Hyp ertext Transfer Protocol over SSL) is a protocol used to encrypt traffic between web browsers and servers. The
HTTPS certificate ensures encrypted exchange of information.

traffictoandf
rom the prod uct is encrypted from this point on.

sword and then re-enter to confirm the spelling. Click OK . The password has now been configured.
