Launch Storage Server by Specifying the IP address

If you installed Viewer and Storage Server on separate PCs, specify IP address of Storage Server and connect Viewer to the Storage Server.

1. Select [Use IP address] from the drop-down menu.

2. Click [Connect].

3. Enter IP address or host name of Master Storage Server in [Host Name or IP], and the port number in [Port].

4. Click [Connect].

5. Enter your [User Name] and [Password], and click [Login].

Note

• If you need to use proxy server, you need to change the Internet option settings in the following procedure:

1. Select [Start] > [Control Panel] > [Internet Options].

2. Select the [Connections] tab.

3. Click [LAN settings].

Change the proxy server settings.

• If using proxy server between Viewer and Storage Server, it should not perform response buffering. Proxies which are configured to perform response buffering may lead to delays in sending small amounts of data (such as events) from the Storage Server to the Viewer. Apache proxy server does perform response buffering so is not recommended.
• You cannot transmit or receive audio when using proxy server.

You can use the Viewer only without connecting to a Storage Server. When Storage Server is not used, some functions are not available.

Use Viewer only

1. Select [Not use Storage Server] from the drop-down menu.

2. Click [Connect].
