XProtect Mobile server (explained)

The XProtect Mobile server handles logins to the system from the XProtect Mobile client or XProtect Web Client.

An XProtect Mobile server distributes video streams from recording servers to the XProtect Mobile client or XProtect Web Client. This offers a secure setup where recording servers are never connected to the internet. When an XProtect Mobile server receives video streams from recording servers, it also handles the complex conversion of codecs and formats, allowing the streaming of video on the mobile device.

You must install the XProtect Mobile server on any computer from which you want to access recording servers.

For information about how the components of the Milestone XProtect VMS interact, see the Milestone document describing the system architecture.

The XProtect Mobile server supports direct streaming and adaptive streaming in live mode (not available for XProtect Essential+).
