Maxpro driver upgrade

When you upgrade the Maxpro video driver, you may need to upgrade a camera or NVR if either device does not support TLS secure communication.

In earlier framework versions, the Maxpro network config property Use Tls defaulted to false and the NVR property HTTP Port to 80. This configuration was not secure. To configure TLS secure communication you had to change these properties.

Niagara implement stringent security: Use Tls defaults to true and HTTP Port to 443.

If you upgrade a station to a latest version of Niagara whose Maxpro network includes devices that do not support TLS secure communication, those upgraded devices will not work unless you deliberately disable secure communication by setting Use Tls to false and HTTP Port to 80.

 CAUTION: While disabling Use Tls and changing the HTTP Port to 80 will get an upgraded system up and running, be aware that your system is vulnerable to a malicious attack.
