System Addresses

A Main Server is the central server of a surveillance system.

All other VMS Servers connect to it, and all client applications communicate through the Main Server. During the login phase, the client applications can select the Main Server they will connect to.

You can define multiple Main Server addresses that the client applications can connect to.
The addresses can be provided as IP addresses (e.g. http://195.168.0.1) or DNS names (e.g. http://www.example.com ).

Note: Users can connect to any of the defined Main Server addresses provided they have a compatible username and password for the Main Server.
