Deleting a Server Definition

Before you are able to delete a server definition, the connection to the server must be disabled
(see page 36). When the connection to the server has been disabled, right-click the unwanted

server entry in the Client’s Navigation section, then select Delete... You will be asked to confirm

that you want to delete the server; if you are sure, click Yes to delete the server.

Adding Slave Servers

On XProtect Enterprise systems, several XProtect Enterprise servers can be included in a

master/slave setup.


If an XProtect Enterprise server defined in your Client’s Navigation section is a master server, you

are able to add all of its slave servers to XProtect Central in one go simply by right-clicking the

required server and selecting Add Slave Servers.

When adding slave servers, keep in mind the maximum number of servers allowed by your

XProtect Central license (see page 32).

Slave Servers with XProtect Corporate

When adding an XProtect Corporate Management Server in Central, all XProtect Corporate

recording servers under the Management Server in question are automatically added to Central as

well (provided your XProtect Central license allows the required total number of servers).

However, on XProtect Corporate systems, it is also possible to add XProtect Enterprise servers as

slaves running under XProtect Corporate Management Server.


Such XProtect Enterprise servers are not added automatically when adding the XProtect Corporate

Management Server to Central; instead they must be added to Central separately.

Grouping Servers in Folders

You are able to group servers in a folder structure of your choice. Added servers are by default
simply listed alphabetically in Clients, but by creating a folder structure you can present the servers

logically according to your organization’s needs


You create the folder structure in the Client’s Navigation section. You—and other Client users—will

then be able to see the folder structure in two places: Under the main Servers folder in the

Navigation section itself, and in the Alarm Overview section’s alarm navigation tree.

Creating a Folder

1.

In the Client’s Navigation folder, right-click the folder under which you want to create the

new folder. If creating your first folder, you must create it under the main Servers folder.

2.

From the menu that appears, select Create Folder...:
