D-Link Systems, Inc.
Security
To ensure the highest security and prevent unauthorized use of the Internet Camera,
the
Administrator
has the exclusive privilege to access the
System Administration
settings to allow users entry and authorize privileges for all users. The Internet Camera
supports multi-level password protection/access to the Internet Camera that can be
restricted to defined users who have a
User Name
and
User Password
, which is
assigned by the Administrator.
The Administrator can release a public user name and password so that when remote
users access the Internet Camera they will have the right to view the image transmitted
by the Internet Camera.
When the Internet Camera is used for the first time, it is highly recommended that the
Administrator set the
Administrator’s Password
to constrain user access to the Internet
Camera since the Default settings are Null String (no password). Once the Password is
defined, only the Administrator has access to the management of the
Internet Camera.
This procedure should be done as soon as possible since the security features of the
Internet Camera will not be enabled until the
Administrator Password
is defined.
At this point it is highly recommended that you click on the
Configuration
button on the
Home screen, and then the
Tools
tab to bring you to the
Admin
screen. Enter a
password
for security purposes.
