However, when a NetGuardor NetGuard-EVSon a local network connects to a
surveillance system which is also on the local network, the Image Server may,
if different subnets are involved, not recognize NetGuard's or NetGuard-EVS's
IP address as being local.
When this is the case, the Image Server may not return a suitable IP address
to NetGuard or NetGuard-EVS for further communication between the two.
Therefore, you are able to define a list of IP ranges which the Image Server
should recognize as coming from a local network, in which case it will respond
with a suitable IP address and seamless communication will be possible.
Max. number
of clients
You are able to limit the number of access clients allowed to connect at the
same time. Depending on your NetDVR configuration and the performance of
the hardware and network used, limiting the number of simultaneously
connected clients may help reduce server load.
If more than the allowed number of simultaneously connected access clients
attempt to log in, only the allowed number of access clients will be allowed
access. Any access clients in excess of the allowed number will receive an
error message when attempting to log in.
By default, a maximum of ten simultaneously connected access clients are
allowed.
To specify a different maximum number of access clients allowed to connect at
the same time, overwrite the value in the
Max. number of clients
field with the
required value.
To allow an unlimited number of simultaneously connected access clients,
type
0
(zero) in the
Max. number of clients
field.
Note:
A four-minute session timeout period applies for access client sessions
on the Image Server. In many cases, access client users may not notice this at
all. However, the session timeout period will be very evident in some cases, for
example if you set the
Max. number of clients
value to
1
: When this is the
case, and the single allowed access client user logs out, four minutes must
pass before it will be possible to log in again.
