Add basic users

When you add a basic user, you create a dedicated surveillance system user account with basic user name and password authentication for the individual user. Note that creating Windows users provides better security. If you want to include users in groups, make sure you add required groups before you add users. You cannot add existing users to groups.

You can add basic users in two ways: One is through the Configure User Access wizard. Alternatively, add basic users this way:

  1. Expand Advanced Configuration, right-click Users, and select Add New Basic User.
  2. Specify a user name. Specify a password, and repeat it to be sure you have specified it correctly. Click OK.
  3. Specify General Access and Camera Access properties. These properties determine the rights of the user. Click OK.
  4. Save your configuration changes by clicking Save in the yellow notification bar in the upper-right corner of the Management Application.
