IP Server essential requirements

IP Server is at the heart of the Video Insight platform. It runs on industry-standard hardware and works with 32-bit and 64-bit versions of the following Microsoft operating systems.

  • Windows Server 2008 R2 Web, R2 Standard, R2 Enterprise and R2 Datacenter.

  • Windows Server 2012 and Server 2012 R2.

  • Windows Server 2016 Standard.

  • Windows 7 Pro, 10 Pro, Enterprise and Education.

IP Server requires Microsoft .NET Framework 4.5+ and Microsoft Internet Information Services (IIS) with “static content” enabled. Because Video Insight hardware and software integrates with the latest Windows updates, the operating system must be updated, with all current Windows updates applied.

Required hardware for installation of IP Server is determined by a variety of factors including the number of cameras, the resolution of those cameras, the number of frames per second, as well as the number of days of required video storage.
