  1. Use the port range 20111-20210 (see Network settings utility, Ports used by Axxon One).
  2. Metadata database:
    1. The path to the metadata storage folder can be specified only once during the installation process. If you decide to change it later, you will have to reinstall Axxon One (without losing your configuration or video archive).
    2. We highly recommend installing the database on an SSD specifically designed for storing metadata.
      1. Do NOT install metadata on the system drive because metadata size tends to grow over time, and if the system drive space is not sufficient, it can cause system issues.
      2. Do NOT install metadata on the drive to which the archive is recorded because it affects recording performance.
    3. Consider the disk space required for the database (see Disk storage subsystem requirements). For example, ≈1.5 TB is required to store metadata for 30 days for 50 cameras.

...

  1. Add the following processes to the exclusion list:

    1. consul.exe
    2. nomad.exe
    3. apphost.exe
    4. postgres.exe
  2. Add the following folders to the exclusion list:
    1. C:\ProgramData\AxxonSoft\Axxon One
    2. C:\Program Files\AxxonSoft\Axxon One
    3. C:\Program Files\Common Files\AxxonSoft
    4. Postgres and metadata folders if their location is not default.
  3. Add the following ports to the exclusion list:
    1. 20109-20210
    2. If Failover server and client installation type is are selected, then also add ports 4000, 4646-4648, 8300-8302, 8500, 8600.

...

  1. Activate the licenses (see Creating an activation request, Activation by applying license file).
  2. Change the password of the root user (see Users).
  3. Create another administrator account for backup. Specify a password for it.
  4. For server only: configure client auto-logout after 1 hour (see Configuring automatic logging out and locking of the Clientsee Logon).
  5. Create the archive before adding cameras (see Creating archives).

...

  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 Searching, adding, configuring, and removing 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 video stream quality in a Surveillance surveillance window (GreenStream)) or in the layout settings (see Selecting the default video stream for all cameras on the layout).
  5. Codec type (сan differ 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.

...

  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 secs).

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

...

  1. Create and configure an email notification (see E-mail notification 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 Roles Role).
  2. Create the users (see Configuring local usersConfiguring LDAP users).
  3. Create the required layouts for each user (see Configuring layoutsa layout).
  4. Check your setup by logging in under different user accounts and verifying the interface and permissions.

...

  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 secs.

  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 camera and Archive Statisticsarchive statistics).
