To prepare your SAMM Fotas devices for integration with Security Center, you must configure the SAMM Fotas system to communicate with the Genetecâ„¢ Restricted Security Area Surveillance (RSA Surveillance) plugin. For specific details about configuring your devices and software, refer to the SAMM Fotas documentation.

Before you begin

  • Make sure that your SAMM Fotas system is operating as per the manufacturer's specifications.
  • Make sure that your SAMM Fotas devices and software are compatible with the RSA Surveillance plugin. For the latest compatibility information, see Supported plugins in Security Center on the Genetec TechDoc Hub.

What you should know

This task describes in a general way how the SAMM Fotas system needs to be configured for it to communicate with the plugin. For specific details about the configuration of your devices and software, refer to the SAMM Fotas documentation.

Procedure

  1. Deploy and configure the SAMM Fotas system as described in the SAMM Fotas documentation.
  2. For some organizations, network security policies require that the IP devices, routers, and switches in their network block unused ports. If your organization has such policies in place, then make sure to open the TCP port that the RSA Surveillance plugin and the SAMM Fotas system use to communicate.
  3. Generate a token on the SAMM Fotas web client.
    It allows RSA Surveillance to communicate with the API.
    NOTE: SAMM Fotas uses port 80 by default.
