For information about the system requirements for the various VMS applications and system components, go to the Milestone website (https://www.milestonesys.com/systemrequirements/).

Milestone recommends that you install the XProtect Mobile server on a separate computer. Before you install and start using the XProtect Mobile server component, make sure of the following:

  • You have set up cameras and views in XProtect Management Client.

  • The mobile server computer resolves the host names of the computers that run the other VMS server components.

  • The management server computer resolves the host name of the mobile server computer.

  • You have a running VMS installed.

  • You have configured at least one VMS user. To connect to the surveillance system, the role to which this user is added requires permissions for the management server:

    • Connect 

    • Read 

    • Edit 

  • If you are upgrading your system, make sure that the version of the XProtect Mobile plug-in matches the version of the mobile server. Your system might not function properly if the versions of the plug-in and mobile servers are not identical.
