Introduction Using the Quick Setup Wizards 1 Using the Quick Setup Wizards There are three wizards available from the Manager Menu of the configuration interface: • Initial Setup: This wizard automatically appears when you log into the configuration interface for the first time. Although you can access it at any time from the Manager Menu, if you have saved any configuration settings before you run the wizard, note that running the wizard will erase any saved data. For example, if you configure a RAID and then run the wizard, the RAID will be deleted. This wizard steps you through the basic configuration to create a RAID, volume, share, user, to set the Home Directory location, set the time, and so on. (For detailed help on the full set of configuration options, refer to the online help or to the Administrator's Guide which you can download from the Cisco website.) • IP Camera Options: The following wizards let you set up the NSS to store videos from IP surveillance cameras. The type of wizard you should choose depends on the way the camera transfers the video clips. 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. To run either of the following wizards, make sure you have created a RAID array, a volume, and any users that you want to grant access to the surveillance videos. After running this wizard, you must map a network drive to the share on the PC running the camera utility and configure the camera utility to save the video to this mapped network drive - FTP: Run this wizard if the cameras are set up to transfer motion- triggered clips. Running the wizard creates a single user and FTP share for the cameras. The videos are then saved within an FTP folder which contains a subfolder for each camera. - CIFS: 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 output to the Windows 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. Cisco Small Business NSS2000 Series Administration Guide 4
