Security

User access control is enabled by default, the administrator sets the root password on
first access. Other users are authorized with user names and passwords, or the
administrator can choose to allow anonymous viewer login to the Live View page, as
described below:
Users - the user list displays the authorized users and access levels:
• Viewer - the lowest level of access, which only allows the user access to the
Live View page.
• Operator - an Operator can view the Live View page, create and modify event
types and adjust certain other settings. The Operator does not have access to the
Systems Options configuration pages.
• Administrator - an administrator has unrestricted access to the Setup Tools and
can determine the registration of all other users.
User Settings - check the corresponding checkboxes to enable:
• Anonymous viewer login - allows any viewer direct access to the Live View
page.
• Maximum number of simultaneous viewers - enter a value here to restrict the
number of unicast viewers accessing the unit. This is useful if you need to save
on bandwidth. (Note that all multicast viewers count as 1 viewer.)
• Anonymous PTZ control login - allows any viewer access to the Pan/Tilt/Zoom
controls on the Live View page.
