Purpose:

The speed dome supports IEEE 802.1X standard.

IEEE 802.1X is a port-based network access control. It enhances the security level of

the LAN. When devices connect to this network with IEEE 802.1X standard, the

authentication is needed. If the authentication fails, the devices don’t connect to the

network.

The protected LAN with 802.1X standard is shown as follows:

Network Switch

RADIUS

Server

Network Dome

Net

Figure 6-16 Protected LAN

 Before connecting the Network Camera to the protected LAN, please apply a

digital certificate from a Certificate Authority.

 The network camera requests access to the protected LAN via the

authenticator (a switch).

 The switch forwards the identity and password to the authentication

server(RADIUS server).

 The switch forwards the certificate of authentication server to the network

camera.

 If all the information is validated, the switch allows the network access to

the protected network.
