Figure 6-19 Protected LAN
Before connecting the Network Camera to the protected LAN, please apply a
digital certificate from a Certificate Authority.
The network camera requests access to the protected LAN via the
authenticator (a switch).
The switch forwards the identity and password to the authentication server
(RADIUS server).
The switch forwards the certificate of authentication server to the network
camera.
If all the information is validated, the switch allows the network access to
the protected network.
For your privacy and to better protect your system against security risks, we
strongly recommend the use of strong passwords for all functions and network
devices. The password should be something of your own choosing (Using a
minimum of 8 characters, including at least three of the following categories:
upper case letters, lower case letters, numbers, and special characters.) in
order to increase the security of your product.
Proper configuration of all passwords and other security settings is the
responsibility of the installer and/or end-user.
Steps:
1. Connect the network camera to your PC directly with a network cable.
2. Enter the 802.1X Settings interface:
