HOW TO CONFIGURE ONVIF PROTOCOL WITH FIRMWARE V5.5.0

Hikvision has changed the way ONVIF protocol is setup in v5.5.0 firmware version. The main reason for this change is to provide better security for the cameras by default. In firmware version v5.5.0 and above ONVIF is disabled by default. Note the user management system in ONVIF is now independent of the user management system on the camera. The following Hikvision document shows how to setup a camera for ONVIF using firmware v5.5.0 and above. https://www.hikvision.com/ueditor/net/upload/2017-12-05/ff341269-5b95-42eb-bd1d-13624d6f24e6.pdf
