Set the password
To gain access to the product, the password for the default administrator user root must be set. This
is done in the Configure Root Password dialog, which is displayed when the
AXIS P3346-VE/P3367-VE/P3384-VE is accessed for the first time.
To prevent network eavesdropping when setting the root password, this can be done via an
encrypted HTTPS connection, which requires an HTTPS certificate.
To set the password via a standard HTTP connection, enter it in the Configure Root Password
window.
To set the password via an encrypted HTTPS connection, follow these steps:
1. Click the Create self-signed certificate button.
2. Provide the requested information and click OK. The certificate is created and the password can
now be set securely. All traffic to and from the AXIS P3346-VE/P3367-VE/P3384-VE Network
Camera is encrypted from this point on.
3. Enter a password and then re-enter it to confirm the spelling. Click OK. The password has now
been configured.
To configure the password directly via an
unencrypted connection, enter the password
