For deployments with more than 500 cameras

For a Federated architecture and clustered mode with more than 500 cameras, the RMF services components must be deployed on a Dedicated RMF Server (DRMF). This server must have the exact machine specifications as the Milestone Management Server. The DRMF server can be clustered to ensure high availability.

Note: All RMF components are installed only on the Parent site.
