1. Connect cameras to the servers.
2. Synchronize the time of all servers and cameras with a single NTP server.
3. Add cameras to the system (see SearchingSearch, addingadd, configuringconfigure, and removing remove IP devices, Bulk creation of IP devices). Preferred protocol: ONVIF generic.

4. Multistreaming:

   1. Set different high- and low-quality streams for each camera.

   2. Low-quality stream settings must be lower than the High quality stream.
   3. Enable GreenStream in the camera context menu on the layout (see Selecting Select video stream quality in a Surveillance the surveillance window (GreenStream)) or in the layout settings (see Selecting Select the default video stream for all cameras on the layout).
5. Codec type (can differ for different camera models): H.265 or H.264 is recommended.
6. FPS: the Low quality stream frame rate must be at least 6 to ensure the correct operation of the detectors.
7. Resolution:
   1. Aspect ratio must be the same for Low and High quality streams*.
   2. The Low quality stream resolution must be no less than 640x360 and no more than 1280x720 to ensure the correct operation of the detectors.
8. Bitrate: 

   1. Recommended type*: VBR.

   2. Set maximum bitrate/bandwidth values.

   3. Recommended bitrate: 1 Mbps per 1 MP.

9. GOV (also known as GOP, I Frame, etc.): it is recommended to have at least one keyframe per 2 seconds.

Archive recording configuration (see Configuring recording to an archiveConfiguration of recording parameters):

1. Link each camera to at least one archive.
2. Configure recording to the archive (permanent or started by events from detectors) for each camera.

3. Make sure pre-recording is enabled (> 1 s).

4. Note that after you recreate the archive, you must recreate all recording rules in the detector settings or on the Programming tab.

...

1. Create and configure an email notification (see Send email).
2. Configure a cycle macro (once a day) to check if all cameras are recording (see Check that archive record exists, Examples of Cycle rules macros).
3. Configure event macros based on statistical data (CPU load, free disk space, see Starting the Event rules macros based on statistical data Configuration of start conditions).

Users and roles (see General information about users):

1. Create and configure the roles (see Role).
2. Create the users (see Configuring local users, Configuring LDAP users).
3. Create the required layouts for each user (see Configuring a layoutLayouts).
4. Check your setup by logging in under different user accounts and verifying the interface and permissions.

...

1. Change the HTTP port from 80 to a custom port (see Configuring Configuration of the Web -Serverserver).

System check:

1. Monitor the CPU load (<= 80%).
2. Monitor the RAM load (<= 60%).
3. Monitor the disk load:
   1. Active time is lower than 50%.

   2. Average response time is less than 1 s.

4. Monitor free disk space: the system drive has at least 20 GB.
5. Use the statistics panel in the web client (see Viewing camera and archive statistics).
