If the areas on which you want to apply the antipassback restrictions are controlled
by multiple Synergis™ units, you must enable global antipassback on the Access Manager
roles.
What you should know
When strict and
hard antipassback is applied to an area without global antipassback, a
cardholder who entered the area through one door cannot leave the area through another
door if both doors are not controlled by the same unit. Also, the same cardholder who
entered the area through one door, can re-enter the area through a different door if the
two doors are not controlled by the same unit. With global antipassback enabled, these
two violations can be prevented.IMPORTANT: Global antipassback only works on areas that
are entirely controlled by Synergis™ units. All units controlling the same area must
be managed by the same Access Manager.
TIP: If you need to
switch your units between Access Manager roles to meet the global antipassback
requirements,
use the Move unit
tool.
To enable global antipassback on an Access Manager role:
-
From the Config
Tool home page, open the Access
control task, and click the Roles and units
view.
-
Select the Access Manager role to configure, and click the
Properties tab.
-
On the Properties page, select the following options:
Enable peer to peer and Enable global
antipassback.
NOTE: Up to 15 Synergis™ units can be
connected as peers.
-
Click Apply.
