Milestone Smart Client 3.6 - Manual (Page 51)

Milestone XProtect Smart Client 3.6; User’s Manual
Parameters
You are able to use the following parameters:
ServerAddress
Refers to the URL of the server to which the Smart Client should connect (if connecting to a
Milestone XProtect Corporate system, this would be the URL of the Management Server; if
connecting to a Milestone XProtect Enterprise, XProtect Professional or XProtect Basis+ system, it
would be the URL of the Image Server).
The following example would show the Smart Client’s login dialog with http://ourserver in the
dialog’s Server address field:
Client.exe –ServerAddress=
"http://ourserver"
Keep in mind that the Smart Client’s default authentication type is Windows authentication (current
user). Unless you change this, through using the AutheticationType parameter (described in the
following), the login dialog will look like this from the user’s point of view, i.e. automatically
displaying the name of the current Windows user in the User name field:
UserName
Refers to a specific user name. The following example would show the Smart Client’s login dialog
with http://ourserver in the dialog’s Server address field, and Tommy in the dialog’s User name
field:
Client.exe –ServerAddress=
"http://ourserver" -UserName "Tommy"
Note: The UserName parameter is relevant only for the authentication methods Windows
authentication and Basic authentication. You use the AuthenticationType parameter (described in
the following) to control which authentication method to use.
Password
Refers to a specific password. The following example would show the Smart Client’s login dialog
with http://ourserver in the dialog’s Server address field, Tommy in the dialog’s User name field,
and T0mMy5Pa55w0rD in the dialog’s Password field:
Client.exe –ServerAddress=
"http://ourserver" -UserName "Tommy" -Password
"T0mMy5Pa55w0rD"
Note: The Password parameter is only relevant if using the authentication methods Windows
authentication and Basic authentication. You use the AuthenticationType parameter (described in
the following) to control which authentication method to use.
