SVR System User Guide Introduction CHAPTER 1 TruVision SVR Overview TruVision SVR System User Guide Overview The TruVision Software Video Recorder (SVR) System User Guide discusses the general capabilities and technical specifications of the TruVision SVR system. This document also discusses the related configuration requirements for the TruVision Navigator software. TruVision SVR Overview TruVision SVR is the software-based recorder platform for the TruVision product family, giving the flexibility of commercial-off-the-shelf server support for scalable video recording needs. TruVision Navigator is the interface used to view and manage the data recorded in the TruVision SVR system. TruVision Navigator v5.0 or a later version is required to manage TruVision SVR. Data can be accessed and viewed over a LAN or the Internet. Through remote viewing and management of third-party cameras, TruVision SVR expands the flexibility of corporate security systems. TruVision SVR, utilizing the technology of IP-addressable cameras, allows system operators to access and program their cameras from anywhere in the world. These network digital video cameras are designed specifically for remote monitoring and management applications such as security and esurveillance. All IP cameras must have their IP addresses configured according to their respective user guide(s). The IP addresses may also be entered when configuring the camera in the TruVision Navigator management software. Once SVR is installed on a system and the system is in production, it is recommended that security on these servers should be locked down by the system administrator so that only users with valid Windows domain accounts have access to video. With the introduction of the browser-based applications, the ability to access video servers is made much easier using Microsoft domain authentication. It is highly recommended to deny access to these servers for a secure deployment. TruVision SVR System User Guide 9 TruVision SVR Overview TruVision SVR Configuration Storage Space Reservation TruVision SVR content is stored in separate tracks that contain information on the index, video status, and events. TruVision SVR always keeps a certain amount of disk space reserved to be in accordance with Microsoft’s drive guidelines. Ten percent of the overall disk space is reserved for these guideline requirements and an additional ten percent is reserved for event storage. In total, twenty percent of the hard disk space is already in use and cannot be used freely. Because TruVision SVR content is stored in separate files if even one of those files is deleted or corrupted video may become inaccessible. For instance, if the index track no longer exists you may not be able to use video tracking. It is advisable to follow basic backup and security measures to make sure your data is protected against hardware and network failures. If your video becomes inaccessible, contact the Interlogix Technical Support Group to assist you with data recovery. 10 TruVision SVR System User Guide Digital Video Prerequisites Digital Video Prerequisites Time Synchronization For digital video system to work properly, time must be synchronized on all computers. Third-party tools are available to synchronize times across multiple time zones. If no NTP source is available, TruVision Navigator server can be used as the NTP server. Anti-Virus Software If this type of software is required (due to corporate policy, for instance), then you must adhere to the following guidelines: • For Real-Time protection, you must exclude all files with the extensions .SPFS, .INFO, .LVI, .LEI, and .LNR. • For Real-Time protection and virus scan, you must exclude the data drives. Windows Updates When running Windows updates, be aware that they require a full shut down of your computer. Make sure that these updates are scheduled to run when either recording will not be necessary or when backup or fail over systems are properly configured and running. Storage File Purging If the system runs out of hard disk space while the system’s cameras are configured for storage capacity, the oldest video files are deleted regardless of what camera they are on. In addition to video files, TruVision SVR content is stored in separate tracks that contain information on the index, video status, and events. This can lead to potentially problems if not accounted for. For example, consider a case where the retention policy is set to five days for all channels, except for one channel which is configured for a 30-day retention policy. The reclamation logic will reclaim files for the channel with 30 day retention that are 6-30 days old before reclaiming files from any other channel. This would significantly affect the amount of video that would be stored for the 30 day retention channel. TruVision SVR System User Guide 11 TruVision SVR Overview 12 TruVision SVR System User Guide CHAPTER 2 TruVision SVR Network Configurations It is very important that all computers on the TruVision SVR Network are on the same domain or trusted domain. If they are not, the TruVision SVR will not function properly. Network Configuration The following firewall and permission information needs to be configured correctly for the TruVision SVR to work correctly. Windows Firewall By default, the Windows firewall is enabled. The system administrator must determine whether firewall services are used on their system. If the firewall is enabled, it will prevent the security management system software from functioning properly until certain things are added to the exception list, which defines which components and ports should not be blocked by the firewall. If the firewall is enabled during installation of the security management system software, the exception list will be automatically populated. IMPORTANT: Since certain elements are added to the exception list, it is mandatory that the Don’t Allow Exceptions check box on the General tab of the Windows Firewall dialog is not selected. Windows Firewall Settings Exception List: • TruVision SVR services: • LnrCapSvcu • LnrRetrSvcu • LnrRTPServer • LpsSearchSvc • RPC Port (TCP/IP 135) • RTP Port (TCP/IP 554) TruVision SVR System User Guide 13 TruVision SVR Network Configurations • UDP Port (5000) ICMP Settings: • Allow incoming echo requests Windows Authentication Model The process used by Windows to verify a client’s identity is called authentication. In order to properly set up a system or troubleshoot an existing installation, the first step is to determine the identity of the client attempting to connect to the server. Here are some general guidelines: • Interactive processes always run with the identity of the user that launched them, or they can be launched with credentials of a different user through the “runas” command. • Services typically run under the SYSTEM account (or another account specified through Windows Services). When a client connects to a remote server, the client’s identity is sent to that machine, and that system authenticates the client. This process can have several outcomes depending on which user account is used by the client: • If both machines are in a domain and the domain user is used, then the server will use the domain controller to authenticate the incoming client connection. • If the client used the local machine account and the same local account with the same password exists on the server, then that account will be used. Note: If the same local account exists on the server, but the password is different, the client’s connection attempt will immediately return failure. It will not default to the method described next. • If the client used the local machine account and an account with that name is unknown to the server, an incoming connection will be assigned the ANONYMOUS user on the remote machine. Note: There is a security policy which allows ANONYMOUS users to be part of the EVERYONE group, but by default the EVERYONE group only includes users whose identity was established in some way (i.e., not anonymous). Local vs. Remote Permissions Extended Windows security model, introduced in Windows XP SP2 and Windows 2003 Server SP1, split permissions listed in the previous section into two separate parts: local and remote. This allows system administrators more granular control over object security. As the client-server connection is analyzed, the location of the components will determine which permissions (launch, activation, and access) will be used. If both components are running on the same machine, local permissions will be used. Otherwise, Windows will use remote permissions. 14 TruVision SVR System User Guide DCOM Configuration DCOM Configuration The DCOM settings must be the same on all computers connected to the TruVision SVR. Be sure to close all security management system applications that may be connected to the recorder. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. In Windows, from the Start menu select Run Type dcomcnfg and click [OK]. Access the Distributed COM Configuration Properties by navigating to Component Services > Computers > My Computer. Right-click on My Computer and select Properties. On the Default Properties tab, make sure it is configured as follows: • Select the Enable Distributed COM on this computer check box. • Clear the Enable COM Internet Services on this computer check box. • Default Impersonation Level should be set to “Impersonate.” • Clear the Provide additional security for reference tracking check box. On the Default Protocols tab, use the buttons to order the list in the exact order shown below: • Connection-oriented TCP/IP • Datagram UDP/IP • Tunneling TCP/IP • Connection-oriented SPX Click [OK]. If changes were made, restart the recorder. Verify that the object exporter error does not appear. If the error still occurs, repeat this procedure, but in step 6, remove the Tunneling TCP/IP protocol from the list of default protocols.

Run the TruVision SVR Live Video Setup tool on each client workstation using monitoring software to see live video. 1. 2. 3. Select the Use Multicast checkbox. If more than one network interface is detected, select the interface to be used for receiving live video. If there is a firewall between the recorders and the client, certain ports must be open for Multicast/UDP. Select the Use ports checkbox. Type in the ports to be opened on the firewall. IMPORTANT: On routers, IP Multicast must also be enabled. Refer to the manufacturer to enable IP Multicast. This may require a firmware upgrade. IMPORTANT: Firewalls between the TruVision SVR and its clients usually block both UDP/ IP and IP Multicast traffic. This traffic is one-directional communication, so if there are firewalls, they must have traffic enabled going from the TruVision SVR to the clients. If the firewall cannot be configured to enable UDP/IP traffic on all ports, then specify a range of ports to be opened. The number of live video streams on the client is limited by the number of open ports. TruVision SVR System User Guide 21 TruVision SVR Installation Note: Some network devices such as routers and switches may broadcast it to all devices instead of delivering data only to subscribed clients. Slow (10 Mbps) devices cannot handle the traffic. It may be possible to resolve these issues by using 100 Mbps or higher devices.

TruVision SVR Unattended Upgrade TruVision SVR is a Windows Installer-based setup package capable of running upgrade installations in reduced user interface modes to support various industry standard deployment technologies, such as SMS or Active Directory. This section provides specific requirements for deploying the TruVision SVR via unattended or silent methods. Deploying Prerequisites There are several third-party prerequisites that are required prior to the TruVision SVR upgrade. These applications are installed during the standard user-driven installation; however when running the installation in reduced user interface modes these prerequisite requirements must be met prior to 22 TruVision SVR System User Guide Adding TruVision SVR to TruVision Navigator the TruVision SVR installation. These applications can be found on the TruVision SVR disc and deployed individually using your preferred unattended technology. Third-party Prerequisites Application TruVision SVR Disc Location Recommended Commands Microsoft .NET 4.0 Runtime .\ISSetupPrerequisites\{074EE22F-2485-4FED-83D1AAC36C3D9ED0}\dotnetfx35.exe /v /q /norestart Microsoft XML Parser 6.0 .\ISSetupPrerequisites\{726F97A8-63B9-4A58-ACFBB8A56B383740}\msxml6_x86.msi /qn Microsoft C++ 8.0 Runtime .\Temp\VCPP9Runtime\vcredist_x86.exe /q Microsoft C++ 9.0 Runtime .\Temp\VCPP8Runtime\vcredist_x86.exe /q Intel Performance Primitives 5.2 .\Temp\INTEL\w_ipp_rti_ia32_p_5.2.msi /q Deploying the TruVision SVR The TruVision SVR is a standard Windows Installer-based package capable of low user interface mode switches for unattended deployment, such as /qr. The installer package requires some user input from a configuration file and a command flag. Configuration settings used in an unattended upgrade are stored in the lnrsetup.ini file located in the Unattended Installation folder on the TruVision SVR disc. This file contains instructions for the various available configuration settings. The file must be modified for your specific system needs prior to deploying the TruVision SVR via unattended mode. Once the file has been updated, it can be stored on a disc or network location so that it can be passed to the setup during the unattended installation. It is recommended to use the /qr parameter to run the installation package in quiet reduced mode via your chosen deployment technology. The UNATTEND flag must also be used to specify the fully qualified path of the lnrsetup.ini file. The following is an example call to the Windows Installer engine (msiexec) which runs the install command (/i) on the TruVision SVR setup package. In this example, the package will be run in reduced quiet reduced mode (/qr) and the UNATTEND parameter specifies the full path to the location of the lnrsetup.ini file. The package and settings are hosted on an accessible Web server so that they always have the same relative access path when they are deployed. "C:\Windows\system32\msiexec.exe /i "\\MyNetworkServer\Lenel Network Video Suite.msi" /qr UNATTEND=""\\MyNetworkServer\MyLNVRSettingsFile\lnrsetup.ini" After the upgrade is complete, reboot the TruVision SVR and verify that it has returned online in monitoring software.

TruVision SVR System User Guide CHAPTER 6 Secure TruVision SVR Installation Checklist This chapter describes the steps for making the TruVision SVR installation more secure. The intention of this chapter is not to cover general Windows security practices and guidelines, but to assist IT professionals in applying these practices and guidelines to Interlogix video products. Limit Access to the Users Group By default, TruVision SVR is installed with access granted to all clients. Access includes retrieval of video and the ability to modify the recorder configuration. Access can be limited by running LnrSetup and opening the Security tab. Review Machine-Wide DCOM Security Settings Default machine-wide limits should be adjusted to provide adequate security for the Windows installation. Each product in the Video Suite has different DCOM configurations based on the included components. If access to TruVision SVR is limited to the LNRUsers group, then anonymous user and everyone entries do not have to be given access. Removing these entries from access permission limits and launch/activation limits will improve security. The LNRUsers group must be allowed to access and activate DCOM objects, but not launch them. If access to the TruVision SVR is not limited to the LNRUsers group, anonymous user access can still be disabled. With this setting, only users that the system knows about will be able to authenticate. This could be problematic for installations that do not have a domain server. Therefore the recommendation is that if the TruVision SVR is secured with this method, then the TruVision SVR and all client machines should be part of a domain.
