Objective

Clients may sometimes choose not to use VIGI NVR but other management platform to manage VIGI Cameras when they already have a third-party storage device. VIGI Cameras support ONVIF Profile S and can be added to the third-party management device that also supports the ONVIF protocol. When ONVIF Profile S is not supported on the third-party device, VIGI Cameras can also allow for live streaming on the third-party platform via the RTSP protocol.

Requirements

  • VIGI Camera
  • Third-Party NVR or NAS
