Import Domain Users

Import Domain Users

You can import the users in the AD domain in a batch to the system (including user name, real name, and email) and assign roles to the domain users.

You should configure the active directory settings. See Set Active Directory for details.

  4. Optional: Set Restrict Concurrent Logins switch to ON and enter the maximum number of concurrent logins.
  5. Set the permission level (1-100) for PTZ control in PTZ Control Permission.
    Note:

    The larger the value is, the higher permission level the user has. The user with higher permission level has the priority to control the PTZ unit.

    When user1 and user2 control the PTZ unit at the same time, the user who has the higher PTZ control permission level will take the control of the PTZ movement.

  6. Check the existing roles to assign the role(s) for the selected domain user.
    Note:
    • If no role has been added, two default roles are selectable: administrator and operator.

      Administrator

      The role that has all permissions of the HikCentral Professional.

      Operator

      The role that has all permissions of the HikCentral Professional Control Client.

    • Click Add to add the user.

    • Click Add and Continue to save the settings and continue to add users.

  8. Optional: After importing the user information in the domain to the system, if the user information in domain is changed, click Synchronize Domain Users to get the latest information of the users imported to the system. If the users are imported by group, it will synchronize the latest user information from the domain group (including added users, deleted users, edited users, etc., in the group).
