Authentication

:

Depending on your network security requirements, the Network Camera provides

three types of security settings for streaming via RTSP protocol: disable, basic and digest� If basic
authentication is selected, the password is sent in plain text format; there can be potential risks
of being intercepted� If digest authentication is selected, user credentials are encrypted in MD5
algorithm and thus provide better protection against unauthorized accesses� The accessibility of
the RTSP streaming for the three authentication modes are listed in the following table�
