For added security, end-to-end encrypted streaming is supported for H.264 video on Axis cameras. This means that video is encrypted by the camera and then decrypted on the client machine when viewing the video. You must be using the correct firmware, and your camera must be configured to use HTTPS.
Before you begin
What you should know
- RTSPS Over HTTPS/SRTP (using the most recent Axis firmware that supports SRTP).
- RTSPS over TCP/SRTP (using the most recent Axis firmware that supports SRTP).
- RTSPS Multicast/SRTP (using the most recent Axis firmware that supports SRTP).
- RTSPS Unicast/SRTP (using the most recent Axis firmware that supports SRTP).
IMPORTANT:
- The most recent Axis firmware that supports SRTP is currently a beta firmware, please speak to your Axis representative for more details.
- RTSP over HTTPS/RTP is also supported (using older Axis firmware that does not support RTSP over SRTP). However, this connection type does not provide end-to-end encryption, and is not available when using the latest beta firmware that supports SRTP.
