Redundancy Management Framework
Select Devices to synchronize properties, groups, roles and views.
While it is possible to synchronize all RMF-licensed devices, this feature allows one to choose only some of these. Only a few devices may be synchronized, while others can maintain different properties, belong to different primary and secondary device groups, and have unique role-based access configurations. Combining this feature with subsequent blocks enables the implementation of precise synchronization filters, providing full control over the process.
For example, this feature could be helpful with multi-lens multi-stream cameras where one may want more streams sent to the primary, and fewer streamed to the secondary so as not to exceed the camera's stream capacity. After the initial camera setup, such a camera could be de-selected from the selection list, and manual stream disables can be made on one of the sites.
Click Devices.
