Element Description
CS-MARS Hostname/IP The IP address or fully-qualified DNS host name of the CS-MARS
server.
Tip If you add a CS-MARS global controller, do not add any of the
local controllers that the global controller monitors. Security
Manager will automatically determine the local controller that
is monitoring a specific device. Adding global controllers
simplifies your CS-MARS configuration.

User Type
The username and password for logging into the server to validate that
the CS-MARS server is running the appropriate software version and to
obtain other basic information. Security Manager also uses this account
to determine which CS-MARS server is monitoring a particular device.
For CS-MARS local controllers, you can enter either a global or local
user account. For global controllers, you must enter a global account.
Identify the type of account in the User Type field.
