Creating and installing a certificate
"Create self-signed certificate automatically" The pre-defined certificate in the network camera is used.
With this option, no settings can be made by users.
"Create self-signed certificate manually" A new certificate is generated. Specific data must be entered.
"Create certificate request and install" Select this option if you wish to generate a certificate request
which is then submitted to a certificate authority. A certificate issued by a recognised certification authority
(e.g. VeriSign) can also be installed on the network camera.
Note: When using a "self-signed certificate", you may receive a warning message from your
browser. Self-signed certificates are always classed as insecure by the browser as the source
certificate and authorisation of the certification authority are both absent.
6.4 SNMP
The Simple Network Management Protocol is a network protocol that can be used to monitor and control
network devices (e.g. routers, servers, switches, printers, computers etc.) from a central station. Here, the
Protocol controls the communication between the monitored devices and the monitoring station. Enable this
function if you are using an SNMP management server in your network. You can also access software
solutions that can be installed on your PC system.
"Enable SNMPv1, SNMPv2c" Depending on your SNMP server settings, you can define the name fields of
the read/write community here.
"Enable SNMPv3" If your SNMP server supports the SNMP protocol in version 3, you can execute the status
query with encryption. To do this, an encryption algorithm and password for the read/write community status
query must be saved in the network camera and SNMP server.

6.5.1 Network settings
All changes made on this page cause the system to restart in order for the changes to take effect. Make sure
that the fields are correctly filled before you click "Save".
"LAN" The default is LAN. Use this setting if the network camera is connected to a LAN. You also have to
make other settings such as the IP address or the subnet mask.
"Obtain an IP address automatically" Every time the network camera is restarted, it is assigned an IP
address via a DHCP server.
