How to Install
To easily fit into various environments, Video Server automatically detects the attached
interfaces and configures itself to the best condition. Therefore users need not care
whether the connected cameras are either NTSC or PAL, how to select the network
between Ethernet and modem, and whether the Ethernet speed is 10Mbps or 100 Mbps.
Video Server supports Ethernet and modem interfaces according to the user's existing
network. Ethernet can provide higher bandwidth to achieve the best performance while
dial-up network with modem is more common in current Internet applications. Refer to
the related installation section for your network environment. If both interfaces are
available, Ethernet is recommended and will be chosen as the first priority if Ethernet
cable and modem are concurrently attached. Managing to install in the other interface
will automatically clear the previous network settings to start new installation.
In the following content, "user" refers to those who can access Video Server and
"administrator" means the supervisor who has the root password to configure Video
Server in addition to general access. Administrators should carefully read this manual,
especially during installation.
