When you use SSL connection for the first time

When you use SSL connection only with the SSL

function

On

, you cannot access the camera if the SSL

function does not work properly.

In this case, you must reset the camera to the factory

settings. (All settings will be initialized.)

To avoid this, check that SSL connection is possible by

following the steps.

1

Set the SSL function to

On

, and select

Allow

HTTP connection for some clients

.

2

Click

OK

to close the main viewer and the setting

window.

3

Display the main viewer in SSL connection.

Refer to “Using the SSL function” on page 15 for

connection.

4

After checking that SSL connection is possible,

cancel

Allow HTTP connection for some clients

selected in step 1.

Even if the setting window or the browser is closed as

SSL connection is impossible, http connection is

possible as


is

selected. First check the setting contents of SSL tab in

http connection, then check the SSL connection again.

When


is not

selected, you will not be able to access the camera if SSL

connection becomes impossible. In this case, turn on the

power of the main unit while pressing the reset switch on

the camera so as to initialize. For details, refer to the

supplied Installation Manual.

Note

As SSL connection becomes load for the camera, all

images may not be downloaded and

mark may

appear when the camera accesses the setting window

from the browser. In this case, reload the window. Press

F5 key on the keyboard to reload.

Certificate options

Select an installation mode of the certificate.

Use an external certificate:

Uses the certificate

including the private key information issued by a

CA. The PKCS#12 and PEM formats are supported.

Use the CSR issued from the camera:

Use CSR

corresponding to the private key information that is

stored in the tamper-resistant chip built in the

camera. Only the PEM format is supported in this

mode.

To use this mode, first obtain the certificate from the

CA by performing “Export certificate request” on

page 51.

Note

Even if the SSL function is set to

On

, it is not active

in the following cases:

–When

Use an external certificate

is selected in

“Certificate options,” and also when the certificate

and the private key password are not set properly.

–When

Use the CSR issued from the camera

is

selected in “Certification options,” and also the

certificate is not set properly.

Use the camera’s built-in certificate (For test use):

Uses the certificate that is stored in the tamper-

resistant chip built in the camera. The private key

information corresponding to the certificate is also

stored in the tamper-resistant chip.

You do not need to install an external certificate.

However, you cannot execute the existence proof that

is one of the SSL functions for the following reasons.

•

A prepared value is set for a distinguished name

(Common name and so on).

•

The certificate is not issued by a trusted CA.

For reasons of security, we recommend using this

mode only when there is no problem even if perfect

security is not saved.

Notes

• When

Use the camera’s built-in certificate

is

selected,

Security Alert

dialog appears on the SSL

connection with a browser.

For details, refer to “Using the SSL function”

(page 15).

•

SSL connection may be impossible due to the type of

the certificate installed in the camera. In this case,

refer to “How to install the CA certificate” on page 52

and install it.

To import the certificate

Click

Browse...

to select the certificate to be imported.

Then click

Submit

, and the selected file will be

imported to the camera.

Note

The import process becomes invalid if the selected file is

not a certificate or the imported certificate is not

allowed.

correctly, its information appears on
