SSL Certificate

You want to use your own SSL certificate for your own DDNS domain? Not a problem! Generate a self signed certificate and upload the certificate (X.509 certificate) and key (Private RSA Key) - combined in a single *.pem file. Please also check the Custom CA Store if you want to use a certificate that is signed by a Certificate Authority - e.g. a certificate generated by Let's Encrypt. Please note that if you don't upload a certificate you camera will use the CA certificate that comes with your personal INSTAR DDNS Address - either way, your encrypted communication will be secure!

Permissions

Your camera provides a fine-grained access rights system that allows you to restrict access to certain menus of the web user interface and its underlying CGI commands. The minimum permission to access this menu is:

  • User Permissions: System Settings

User permissions can be modified in the user menu.

Web User Interface - 1440p Series - Network SSL Certificate

Format

The correct formatting is important, otherwise the camera will not accept the digital certificate. The camera uses certificates in PEM format. The certificate file must therefore have the file extension .pem.

Below you can see a blank sample certificate. You need your private key (Private RSA Key or Private Key) and the X.509 certificate, which contains your public key that you received from your certification authority.

-----END CERTIFICATE-----

"Private RSA Key" or "Private Key"?

You only need one! It does not matter which key you use here, as long as it is correctly identified.

With -----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY----- you set the beginning of the "Private RSA Key" and with -----END RSA PRIVATE KEY----- you set the end.

With -----BEGIN PRIVATE KEY----- you set the beginning of the "Private Key" and with -----END PRIVATE KEY----- you set the end.

In addition to one of the private keys mentioned above, you also need the X.509 certificate with your public key.

With -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE----- you set the start of the X.509 certificate. With -----END CERTIFICATE----- you set the end.

Important note!

It is important that the Private RSA Key or the Private Key matches the X.509 certificate. If the HASH values do not match, the camera will discard the certificate.

If you want to change the certificate, the camera must be restarted afterwards. Only then will the newly selected certificate be valid.

MQTT, FTPS and HTTPS Alarmserver

If you upload a private certificate here, it will also be used for the INSTAR MQTT Broker, the HTTPS Alarmserver and FTPS Service beside the HTTPS Connection over your INSTAR DDNS address.
