To make sure that your Security Center installation goes smoothly, you must perform a series of pre-configuration steps.
What you should know
IMPORTANT: No server name
can be longer than 15 characters. Security
Center truncates all server names
longer than the maximum limit to 15 characters, causing errors when the system
tries to access those servers.
CAUTION:
Do not use the image of a configured machine
to install Security
Center on similar machines.
Security
Center installer creates unique IDs
when it runs for the first time on a machine. These IDs are stored in configuration
files and the Directory database. If these IDs are duplicated, then it will cause
conflicts with the entities in the system sharing the identifiers. This may make the
system unusable.
Cameras developed by some manufacturers have been restricted due to a higher cybersecurity risk profile; these cameras require a special connection license, in addition to the normal camera license. To view a list of manufacturers that require a restricted license, use the Restricted License Type filter on the Supported Device List.
