protocols or causing bandwidth constraints. This provides for a more secure architecture, bandwidth control and higher performance.

19.The Network Video Recorder software shall be designed to support an open hardware architecture that uses commercial-off-the-shelf hardware (COTS), enabling virtually any standard hardware platform to be transformed into an Enterprise Network Video Recorder. The latest list of supported hardware must be available on the manufacturer’s web site.

20.The Network Video Recorder software user interface must be easy to use, allowing the user with appropriate permissions to access operations using a standard browser (THIN CLIENT) on a Windows or Macintosh or UNIX machine, one-click hyperlinks and buttons, and drop-down menu selections. The system must also have the ability to host multiple remote users, archive data, and search for data, all while recording multiple video streams. The latest list of supported browsers must be available on the manufacturer’s web site.

21.The Network Video Recorder system shall integrate into any standard TCP/IP network environment. The automatic bridging of multiple networks by the Network Video Recorder will enable both IT and security managers to collectively integrate the unit into existing networks without compromising the existing security protocols or causing bandwidth constraints.

22.The Network Video Recorder software shall support auto-discovery mechanism for supported devices to help reduce the time required to add these devices to the system. The client management software shall also provide auto-discovery of local Network Video Recorders.

23.The Network Video Recorder software shall support up to three network time protocol (NTP) servers for date and time synchronization. In addition, it shall include the option of being the NTP server for environments where connectivity to a public NTP server is restricted.

24.The Network Video Recorder software shall support receiving its IP address information from an existing dynamic host configuration protocol (DHCP) server for the user’s network (LAN1). In addition, it shall include the option of being the DHCP server for smaller environments where a DHCP server may not available.

25.The Network Video Recorder software shall support a static IP address setting from the local IT administrator for both of the client and camera network interface cards (NICs).

26.The Network Video Recorder shall be designed to maximize performance.

27.The Network Video Recorder software shall support a hardened and embedded Linux operating system that utilizes the minimum required resources needed to efficiently operate. This appliance technology ensures
