5.6. Security aspects
A high level of security can be implemented in the AXIS Camera Station. The software can inherit the
Windows user database (local or LDAP/Domain) and you can grant or deny users access to a specific
camera. This feature allows you to use your current user database without having to set up and maintain
a separate database of users.
Once a user is defined, you select the user-access level. Three levels are available:
1) Administrator – full access to all of AXIS Camera Station's functionalities
2) Operator – Access to all functionalities (including recorded events) except the configuration pages
under Options
3) Viewer – Access only to live video
For each user, you can choose which cameras the user will be allowed to access. There are also options
to allow/deny access to functions such as audio and PTZ control for each user or camera.
Figure 5.6a. AXIS Camera Station allows an administrator to select which camera and functionality a user may have access to.
