ENR Server / Client Architecture
In a video surveillance system architecture,
ENR
serves as service provider, aimed to run
24/7 non-stop a video management service for clients. An
ENR
Client
makes requests for
monitoring video streams or playing back recordings of
ENR
.
There are two types of
ENR
clients:
Local Client
and
Remote Client
.
A client, connecting
from whether a remote computer or from local, will be offered the same functionalities of
ENR.
Local Client
: In the local site, the client user directly operates
ENR
by connecting an HDMI
monitor and a USB mouse to the physical
ENR
.
Remote Client
: Over the TCP/IP network, the
Remote Client
communicates with
ENR
through HTTP Protocol. This client user will have to use a computer with Internet Explorer
to access the
ENR
web interface, without the need of installing any client program
beforehand. Logging in to
ENR
is as simple as visiting a website.
