Users Tab

Use the Users tab to create and manage user accounts and to change the way the camera manages the users settings.

General Settings

Use the General Settings page to set the public user access level. This access level is a predefined set of user permissions that allow the camera to be accessed without logging on. The permission levels are Operator, Viewer, and Disabled.

The General Settings page also allows you to change the way the camera manages users and groups settings. These settings can be managed on a camera-to-camera basis or by using a centralized server to apply changes to multiple cameras. General settings for users and groups include Standalone, Node, and Mixed settings. An example of a Mixed management mode would be using a Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) server like Microsoft® Active Directory for authentication.

Users

User accounts are created to limit the permissions of individuals who are logged onto the camera. The Users page also includes four predefined access level settings that include Administrator, Manager, Operator, and Viewer permissions.
