About XProtect Enterprise servers
This section is only relevant if you use:

XProtect Corporate

your system does not use IPv6, and

you have installations with XProtect Enterprise version 7 or later.
In all other cases, use Milestone Federated Architecture or Milestone Interconnect.
You can add XProtect Enterprise servers to your XProtect Corporate system. When added, the
servers act as recording servers and their video can be viewed by the clients.
In the Management Client, you can see the status of added XProtect Enterprise servers. You must still
define all XProtect Enterprise server settings (cameras, scheduling, user rights etc.) in XProtect
Enterprise’s Management Application. See the XProtect Enterprise documentation.
To give users access to video from XProtect Enterprise servers, you must match roles in XProtect
Corporate with user rights defined on the XProtect Enterprise servers.

Add XProtect Enterprise servers
Even if the XProtect Enterprise system has an internal master/slave setup, you cannot reuse it in your
XProtect Corporate system. You must add each XProtect Enterprise server that you need device data
from individually.
To add an existing XProtect Enterprise server to your system:
1. From the Manage ment Client’s Tools menu, select Enterprise Servers.
2. In the Add/Remove Enterprise Servers dialog box, click Add.
3. Enter the IP address or the host name of the XProtect Enterprise server.
4. Enter the port number used by the XProtect Enterprise server.
The default port number is 80. If in doubt, you can find the port number in XProtect
Enterprise’s Management Application under Server Access.
5. Enter the user credentials for the administrator of the XProtect Enterprise server to give
yourself unlimited rights to the device data from it.
6. If the XProtect Corporate system accesses the XProtect Enterprise server through an Internet
connection, click Network to specify the WAN address of XProtect Corporate’s management
server. You need only define the WAN address once.
