VIP X1 | Installation and Operating Manual EN | 71
Bosch Security Systems | 2006-12 | V2.5 Configuration using a Web browser
Destination password:
If the remote station is password protected, enter the password here.
You can save up to ten target IP-addresses on this page. This means that also
only ten passwords for connections can be defined here. If more than ten con-
nections are necessary, for example when connections are initiated by a control-
ling system, such as VIDOS or Bosch Video Management System, you can
define a general password. The VIP X1 can make connections with this general
password to all devices protected by that same password. In such cases, pro-
ceed as follows:
– Select 10 in the Number of destination IP address list box.
– Enter 0.0.0.0 in the Destination IP address field.
– Enter the password in the Destination password field.
– Set the user password of all the devices to be connected to this password.
Note
Setting target 10 to the destination IP address 0.0.0.0 will override its func-
tion as the tenth address to try for auto-connect by the VIP X1 on alarm.
Instead the parameter is used only to store the general password.
Remote port:
Choose the browser-port, depending on the network configuration. Port 443 for
HTTPS connections is only available if the On option in SSL encryption is
active.
SSL encryption:
SSL encryption can be used to protect data, such as the password, used for con-
nection establishment. If you activate the On option, only encrypted ports are
available for the Remote port parameter.
Note
SSL encryption must be activated and configured on both sides of a con-
nection. The appropriate certificates must also have been uploaded to the
VIP X1 (see page 99).
You can configure and activate encryption for media data (video, audio, meta-
data) on the Encryption page (see page 91).
