Defining video servers

The video server list allows you to assign or limit operator access to specific video servers and cameras. For example, even if a workspace level allows access to a video server, you still have the ability to restrict access to a specific camera for that workspace. This feature makes it easier to define or modify permission for accessing a video server, a video view or other video menu items.

  1. Move to the Video server tab to select the list of video servers that are available to an operator who is assigned the selected workspace.
    • Select All video servers if you want all of them to be available to the operator who is assigned this workspace.
    • You can also select individual video servers from the displayed list.
  2. Save your modifications.
    Note: To filter video views available to an operator, the operator’s workspace must have access permission to the video server associated with this specific video view. For example, if operators are granted access permission to a video view but their workspace definition does not give them access to the video server where the video view is defined, the video view is not available to operators with this workspace.
