A new Hikvision IP camera should be supplied in an 'Inactive' state, which requires it to be 'Activated' by creating a strong password of your own choice.
If the camera is connected to a PoE port on a Hikvision NVR, the NVR would normally do this automatically when the PoE port is in 'Plug & Play' mode, which is the default.
If the camera is connected to the LAN, 'Activation' can be done either with a web browser to the camera IP address, or more easily with Hikvision's SADP tool.

SADP Tool

Locate Hikvision brand cameras within the same network, including their IP address and port.
