Installing LDAP
Required Items
• Name of LDAP server.
• Account in LDAP server that has Domain Admin rights. This user will be used
initially to create the OU’s and Groups within Active Directory.
1. Verify that the recorder server is connected to a network that has a valid LDAP
(Active Directory) server.
Ensure that the TCP/IP settings are configured correctly for DNS resolution and
gateway if needed.
Check to verify that you can ping the LDAP server without issues.
2. Set up DVR Site Code to be used for LDAP authorization. The default will be 100-
000. This site code can be used to group recorders together within Active
Directory.
3. Log in to the recorder using the local recorder administrator account (non-LDAP).
4. Navigate to the Setup -> Information tab and change the Site Code.
5. Log on to the recorder server with the domain account with administrator privileges
(see above required items).
If successful, the recorder will log the administrator user on without any error
messages. You may log off the recorder once this is completed without errors.
Note If you encounter an error please
verify that the above required
items are correct.
6. Go to the Active Directory Users and Computers application. You should now see
an OU called DVR with an OU inside of it named the same as the Site Code above
(example 100-000).
