The way remote access is handled at the surveillance system server end is different, depending on
remote access method:
Server End: Providing Access through Clients
Surveillance system administrators use two administration tools for providing access through
NetGuard, NetGuard-EVS and Ocularis Client Lite:
Image Server
Recordings viewed by NetGuard, NetGuard-EVS and Ocularis Client Lite users are provided by the
NetDVMS surveillance system's Image Server. The Image Server runs as a service on the NetDVMS
server; it does not require separate hardware.
The system administrator uses the
Image Server Administrator window
to manage NetGuard,
NetGuard-EVS and Ocularis Client Lite access to the surveillance system.
Download Manager
In order to get copy of NetGuard, NetGuard-EVS or Ocularis Client Lite, users connect to the
surveillance system server which will present them with a welcome page. The welcome page will list
the available clients and language versions.
The system administrator uses the
Download Manager
to control which clients and language versions
should be available to users on the welcome page.
Server End: Providing Access Through NetPDA/NetCell
Client
Use of the NetPDA/NetCell Client requires that a matching NetPDA/NetCell Server is installed on the
surveillance system.
The NetPDA/NetCell Server is installed on an Internet Information Services (IIS) server, and is used
as a front-end to the NetDVMS system's Image Server, on which user rights are defined.
The NetPDA/NetCell Server handles login and session requests between the NetPDA/NetCell Client and
the Image Server. The NetPDA/NetCell Server also handles resizing of surveillance video to fit the
screen layout of the NetPDA/NetCell Client.
