Requirements
This feature requires Security Center 5.10.2.0 and later. The people count state of systems earlier than 5.10.2.0 is not reported through the Security Center Federation™ role.
Example: Federated visitor activity cannot be properly tracked from a 5.10.0.0
Security Desk connected to a 5.10.2.0
system.
The following user privileges are required to view the people count and use the
People counting task:
- Task privileges > Operation > People counting
- Action privileges > Areas > Modify people count
How it works
People count and visitor information is sent through the Security Center Federation™ role. Federated areas and local areas of each system do not communicate. This means that a federated cardholder can simultaneously be in a federated area at site B and in a local area at site A because the cardholder is not removed from one area when they badge at the other.
