  • If the password for root is lost or forgotten, the network camera must be reset to the factory default settings. See Resetting to the Factory Default Settings, on page 16.

AXIS M1011: The installation is now complete.

AXIS M1011-W/M1031-W: Proceed to Configure the wireless connection, on page 11.

Configure the wireless connection

AXIS M1011-W/M1031-W is temporarily connected to the wired network to allow configuration of the camera's wireless settings before connecting to the wireless network. Configuring the camera using an unsecured wireless connection is not recommended, as passphrases and keys are sent in plain text.

Note:

For even greater security, use HTTPS. Once the camera has been connected to the wired network, go to Setup > System Options > Security > HTTPS and refer to the camera's online help for instructions.

Status of Wireless Networks

Go to Setup > Basic Setup > Wireless in the camera's internal web pages.

This list is the result of a network scan. The network the AXIS M1011-W/M1031-W is currently linked to is shown in blue. A network using unsupported security is shown in grey. The following information is provided:

SSID - The name of a wireless network (or ad-hoc device).
Mode - An Access Point (Master) or Ad-Hoc device.
- Security - Shows which type of security the network uses. See below for the supported security types.
- Channel - Shows the wireless channel currently in use.
- Signal strength - Shows the signal strength.
- Bit rate - The current bit rate in Mbit/s. This is only shown for the access point currently in use.

Note:

Access points with a disabled SSID Broadcast will not appear unless the SSID is manually entered.

Wireless Settings

  1. Select an access point or ad-hoc device under Status of Wireless Networks, some of the required information will automatically be entered under Wireless Settings.
  2. SSID is the name of the selected wireless network. Leave this field blank if AXIS M1011-W/ M1031-W is to access the nearest unsecured network.
  3. Network type - select Master to access the network via an access point or Ad-hoc to access any other wireless device and create a local network (see note below).
  4. Security - select one of the following methods:

WPA/WPA2-PSK
- WPA-/WPA2-Enterprise - see instructions below
- WEP - see instructions below
- No security (not recommended)

Keys, passphrases and certificates that are used for security must be entered manually. To retrieve the necessary details, contact the Network Administrator for the selected access point or ad-hoc device.

5. Click Save.

Note:

Ad hoc mode allows users to form a wireless LAN without connection via an access point. The camera can, for example, connect point-to-point to a laptop with wireless network support. Ad-hoc connection may be useful in certain installations but is not the recommended method.

WPA-/WPA2-PSK - Enter the required Pre-shared Key for the access point, which can be a hexadecimal number (Manual hex) or a passphrase

WPA-/WPA2-Enterprise - Choose the type of client/server authentication being used by the access point; EAP-TLS.

EAP-TLS

  • Identity - Enter the user identity to present to the network
  • Private key password - Enter the password for your user identity
  • EAPOL version - Select the version used (1 or 2) in your access point
    Certificates - Upload a CA certificate to present to the access point for authentication

AXIS M1031 - EAP-TLS - 1

WEP

Authentication - Select Open or Shared Key, depending on the method used by your access point. Not all access points have this option, in which case they probably use Open System, which is sometimes known as SSID Authentication.

Key length - This sets the length of the key used for the wireless encryption, 64 or 128 bit. The encryption key length may also be shown as 40/64 and 104/128.

Key type - The available key types depend on the selected access point. The following options are available in the camera:

  • Manual - Allows you to manually enter the hex key.
  • ASCII - The string must be exactly 5 characters for 64-bit WEP and 13 characters for 128-bit WEP.
  • Passphrase - In 64-bit WEP, the Passphrase generates 4 different keys. For 128-bit WEP, only 1 key is generated, which is then replicated for all 4 keys. Key generation is not standardized and can differ from brand to brand. Check that the generated keys are identical to those in your access point - if not, they must be entered manually.

Complete the wireless installation

  1. Check that the wireless settings in the camera correspond to the settings in the access point.
  2. Disconnect the network cable from the camera.
  3. Refresh the web page after 20-30 seconds to confirm the wireless connection. If the camera cannot be accessed, run AXIS IP Utility and select it from the list.

Note:

  • To establish communication, the wireless settings must be exactly the same in the camera as in the access point or ad-hoc device.
  • Keys, passphrases and certificates that are used for security must be entered manually. Contact your Network Administrator for the requirements for the selected access point or ad-hoc device.
  • Wireless settings must always (during installation and at all other times) be configured or changed in the camera first, before changing the settings in the wireless access point. This ensures that the camera is always accessible when making changes.
  • SSID (Service Set Identifier) is sometimes written as ESSID (Extended Service Set Identifier).
