Before you begin

Ensure the following:
  • Your server meets the recommended system requirements.
  • A compatible version of Security Center is installed.

  • For your operators to have access to the features added by this plugin, you must install this plugin on all Security Center client workstations.
  • Install the Otis Compass plugin on any Federation™ hosts from which you want to monitor Otis CompassPlus™ Destination Management system.
  • If you are federating a Security Center system, you must install the Otis Compass plugin on the Federation™ host.
