Configuring the discovery port

To ensure that your Axis Powered by Genetec door controller is findable on your Security Center LAN, you must configure its discovery port to match the one used by its Access Manager role.

What you should know

  • Axis Powered by Genetec door controllers are treated as access control units in Security Center. They can be added directly to the Access Manager role.
  • The discovery port is the port used by Access Manager roles to find their units on the network. The default discovery port is 2000.

Procedure

  1. In the Powered by Genetec page, click the Unit-wide parameters tab.
  2. In the Discovery port section, change the Discovery port if necessary.
