HA/Master Config
The HA/Master Config tab allows you to associate a
certificate object with a Screen or Administration
Station that is part of
-
an HA group
-
a Centralized
Management group
The High Availability menu and the
Primary Name menu determine the role a Screen has
within an HA and Centralized Management group. The settings
you choose for these menus determine which other controls on
the HA/Master Config tab are active.
The following table identifies the
roles a Screen can have and the options you specify for the
High Availability and Primary Name menus.
