Set the root password

To gain access to the Axis product, you must set the password for the default administrator user root. This is done in the Conﬁgure

Root Password dialog, which appears when the product is accessed for the ﬁrst time.

To prevent network eavesdropping, the root password can be set via an encrypted HTTPS connection, which requires an HTTPS

certiﬁcate. HTTPS (Hypertext Transfer Protocol over SSL) is a protocol used to encrypt trafﬁc between web browsers and servers. The

HTTPS certiﬁcate ensures encrypted exchange of information.

To set the password via a standard HTTP connection, enter it directly in the ﬁrst dialog.

To set the password via an encrypted HTTPS connection, follow these steps:

1. Click Create self-signed certiﬁcate.

2. Provide the requested information and click OK.Thecertiﬁcate is created and the password can now be set securely. All

trafﬁc to and from the product is encrypted from this point on.

3. Enter a password and then re-enter to conﬁrm the spelling. Click OK. The password has now been conﬁgured.

Note

• The default administrator user name root is permanent and cannot be deleted.

• If the password for root is lost, the product must be reset to the factory default settings. See Reset to factory default

settings, on page 39.
