The default certificate is not adequate to satisfy
PCI (credit card processing compliance).
Is there a way to replace the default MD5 class certificate
with our own?

We run dvr 8.3. If we need to upgrade in order to allow
us to set up our own ssl certificate, what verion allows this?
Regards,

Malcolm,

Sorry that this post was not replied to sooner. Yes, you can configure the Geovision webcam server to run https / SSL for secure remote connections by following these instructions:

From the main Geovision console, click on the network button and select Webcam Server
On the server setup screen, click on the Server tab
Check the Enable SSL checkbox
Use port 443 to access the webscam server through itnernet Explorer
To access remotely over the Internet, be sure to setup port forwarding on your reouter for port 443

If you have not already configured your webcam server, you can find those instructions here: Geovision webcam server setup.

We hope that this helps.

Can I make my GV800 use https rather than http for remote viewing? This is required by a third party that I am associated with.
