NVR Hardware
The NVR is comprised of both hardware and software. Each platform (standard or
standalone) comes fully loaded with NVR software. The following table shows the hardware
configuration relative to the number of purchased licenses. The license file determines the
total maximum concurrent recordings allowed. In a standard NVR installation the NVR license
file is stored on the Portal Server; in a standalone NVR installation the NVR license file is stored on
the Standalone NVR.
