About basic users

When you add a basic user to your system, you create a dedicated surveillance system user account
with basic user name and password authentication for the individual user. This is in contrast to the
Windows user, added through Active Directory. See the User and Groups tab (see "User and Groups
tab (roles)"
on page 177) under Roles for more information.

Create basic users

To create a basic user on your system:

1. Expand Security > Basic Users.

2. In the Basic Users pane, right-click and select Create Basic User.
