The Mobile Server role provides Security
Center access on mobile
devices.
If your license supports mobile devices (Number of mobile devices >
0), the Mobile Server and Media Gateway roles are created by default after you install
Security
Center on the main server.
You can create multiple Mobile Server roles on your system. The Genetec™ Mobile app connects to the Mobile Server using a
unique URL.
The format of the URL is host:port/web
address, where host is the IP address or hostname of
the server hosting the Mobile Server role, port is HTTPS port 443
by default, and web address is Mobile by
default.
Mobile Server setup scenarios
You can configure the following setup
scenarios for the Mobile Server:Single role on a single server:
This is the default setup, ready to be deployed immediately after installation.
Single role on multiple servers:
Use this setup to support role failover and load balancing. Load balancing for Mobile
Server is based on the number of client connections and media sessions handled by each
server.
Multiple roles on multiple servers:
Use this scenario if you want to implement network segmentation. For security
purposes, you might create one mobile access point on your intranet and another on the
Internet. If your mobile users are scattered around the world, you might create one
Mobile Server role for each relevant country or continent to boost your system
performance. You can assign each role to one or multiple servers.
