Note that you only need to run the wizard once and then you must configure each the camera to output the video to the configured share. - FTP: Run this wizard if the cameras are set up to transfer motion- triggered clips via FTP.

The wizard creates a single user and share for all cameras that are configured to stream video to the Windows camera utility program. After you run the wizard, you must map the network drive from the PC that runs the Windows utility program to the CIFS share and then set up the utility to save the mapped network drive.

need to run the wizard once and then you must configure each the camera
to output the video to the configured share.
-
FTP

Run this wizard if the cameras have a Windows utility program that
lets you save the streaming video to a local drive (or in this case, the
NSS) and then view the video from its saved location. The wizard
creates a single user and share for all cameras that are configured to
stream video to the Windows camera utility program. After you run the
wizard, you must map the network drive from the PC that runs the
Windows utility program to the CIFS share and then set up the utility to
save the mapped network drive.
