Management Client elements

Based on functionality handled in the event server, the alarms feature provides central overview,
control and scalability of alarms in any number of federated installations (including any other XProtect
systems) throughout your organization. You can configure it to generate alarms based on either:

Internal system related events

For example, motion, server responding/not responding, archiving problems, lack of disk space
and more.

External integrated events

This group can consist of several types of external events:

o

Analytics events

Typically data received from an external third-party video content analysis (VCA) providers.

o

Milestone Integration Platform plug-in events

Through the Milestone Integration Platform Software Development Kit (MIP SDK) a third
party vendor can develop custom plug-ins (for example, integration to external Access
Control Systems or similar) to your system.
