    Hi cgjeon,

    You also can do this with Wireshark or tcpdump, just capture the traffic between camera and server, and if you'll see all applicable data is encrypted if it was enabled.

    Hi Norman

    "System Management > Security > Encrypt video traffic to desktop client"

    If you don't mind, can you please guide me how to check this with wireshark?
    I just don't know how.

    Hi cgjeon,

    It's fairly easy.

    1. Assure Client and Server are on different devices
    2. If you are on the client machine, set the server IP address as the host filter
    3. Start Wireshark. Let it run for a few seconds after you connected the Client to the Server
    4. Stop Wireshark and you'll notice the TLS protocol that has been used (TLS1.2 in my example)
    5. Follow a TCP packet, and you'll notice a lot of jibberisch > the encryption
