Using Server Management
The ENVR2 Plus Appliance is configured through Server Management, which you can access from the ACC
Client application (if you are adding the appliance to an existing multi-server site), or any compatible browser
on a workstation on the same network as the appliance. With Server Management you can configure the
appliance server settings, set how the server keeps time, and remotely restart or upgrade the server. When
the appliance is the first (or only) ACC server deployed at a site, you must access Server Management with a
browser, and after you configure the appliance you can download the ACC Client software to the workstation
and activate the ACC server software on the appliance. Throughout this section, the term device is used to
identify the appliance.
Start backing up the system settings for the appliance after you configure it. These settings include the ACC
password, and the settings for the camera connections. For more information on backing up the site and
server configurations, see the Help files provided with the ACC Client software, or the
Avigilon ACC Client
User Guide
available from the Avigilon website.
