@viper8177 check out this video “Video Surveillance Systems: Centralized vs. Decentralized” it will answer your question.
How do you set up an IP camera to record directly to a NAS on your local area network without any computer on your network being switched on?
Hi jayndev
No separate log is not required for configuring or managing cameras or the video/storage. MOBOTIX cameras can be configured using the free client software MxControlCenter individually or in large batches, remotely or locally. With this decentralized system you are not locked into a central server topology, you can record to – SAN, NAS, PC/Server, or at the camera (SD, USB, Ethernet). All of this can be done without the need for a central NVR with licensed video management s/ware.
Hi Mr. Mobotix,
How easy is it to manage 10 or more cameras if you need to change FPS, res. or motion parameters? I would venture to guess that you would need to seperately log into them individually to do this, that’s a nightmare for an end user? Wouldn’t it be better to have a central mgmt system and have it direct the streams to a centralized storage array? That way, video can be protected in a locked room, you can take advantage of industry standard storage, and globally manage the cams.
