This documentation describes how XProtect VMS administrators in XProtect Management Client configure and manage the integration with IVA applications through Milestone AI Bridge.

How the analytics data are made available for the XProtect VMS and what you can configure in XProtect Management Client depends on the IVA application and your chosen analytics topics. This documentation describes the configuration, maintenance, and behavior of a typical Milestone AI Bridge and IVA applications integration in an IVA application agnostic way.

How XProtect VMS administrators and the IVA app integrator decide to share the configuration tasks in XProtect Management Client is individual for each organization. Therefore, your IVA app integrator may handle some of the XProtect Management Client tasks described in this documentation.

The IVA app integrator typically sets up the processing servers on which most of the analysis of the video happens and installs Milestone AI Bridge and your IVA applications.
