If you need many card credentials in your access control
system, you can enroll multiple credentials at a time.
The following two enrollment methods are available in the
Credential management task:
Automatic entry:
This is the recommended method when the cards you want to enroll are at
your disposal, and when the card data is not found within any known
range of values. It is also appropriate to use this enrollment method
when the cards come in many types of formats.
Manual entry:
This is the recommended method when all the cards you want to enroll are
the same format, and one of the data fields (typically the Card
number) contains a range of consecutive values. You do not
require the actual cards, or a card reader to use this method, and it
can be an effective way of pre-enrolling large quantities of cards.
You can also enroll credentials using the Import
tool. For more information about importing credentials using
the Import tool, see the Security Center Administrator
Guide.
