FEATURES
The instructions below are for LDAP with Server Software version 3.6.36 and above.
The recorder server does not need to be joined to the Domain. The recorder server will query the LDAP server for accounts
and authorization levels.
The recorder server creates groups within LDAP for each of the permissions on the recorder. Simply join a Domain user to
these groups to provide access to that function in the recorder.
Recorder access within LDAP is based on the Site Code within the recorder software. This allows an administrator to group
recorders with the same Site Code.
Remote and Multi-Site management software works with LDAP logins.
