HTTPS refers to the combination of HTTP interaction over an encrypted Secure 
Socket Layer (SSL) or Transport Layer Security (TLS). The HTTPS technology 
ensures end-to-end security and provides complete defense against eavesdrop, 
impersonation, and hijacking. 

Click the “Enable HTTPS secure connection” checkbox to enable HTTPS. You will 
first have to create and install a certificate.

The first method is to create a Self-signed certificate:

Click the Create button and the create Certificate window appears.

Fill in the required information and click Save to generate a self-signed certificate.

The certificate will be automatically installed upon generation, then you can 
enable the HTTPS service. 

The second method is to fill out a certificate request:

Click the Create button. The Create Certificate window appears.

Fill in information and click Save to generate a certificate request. A certificate 
request will be generated by camera. 

Copy the request and have Certificate Authority sign the certificate request. 

The signed certificate will then be received in form of a file. You will need to 
upload the certificate to the camera. 

After uploading the signed certificate the camera will automatically install the 
certificate. You can then enable the HTTPS service.
