3. Configure these settings:
Setting name Description
Username Type the name of the account, such as IT, that can be referenced in
other parts of the configuration.
Do not use spaces or special characters. The maximum length is 35
characters.
Note: This is the entire user name that the person must provide when
logging in to the CLI or web UI. Depending on Authentication, your
external authentication server may require that you enter both the user
name and the domain part, such as guard@example.com.
Display name Type a name for the recipient, such as FortiRecorder admin, as
you want it to appear in snapshot notifications, if any, sent by
FortiRecorder.
Email address Type the person’s email address or an email alias, such as
all-admins@example.com, that will receive snapshot notifications,
if any, sent by FortiRecorder (see “Configuring FortiRecorder to send
notification email”).
If you do not know the email address and cannot provide it, don’t
worry. The person still will be able to view camera-related notifications
whenever he or she logs in to the FortiRecorder NVR. Additionally, the
person can configure his or her own email address later, when he or
she logs in.
Note: This is not used by accounts whose Type is Viewer; they cannot
receive snapshot notifications.
Message method Select either Email or SMS to send notification messages to this user.
For detailed about notifications, see “Notifications”.
Password Type a password for the account.
This field is available only when Authentication is Local or RADIUS +
Local.
Tip: For improved security, the password should be at least eight
characters long, be sufficiently complex, and be changed regularly. To
check the strength of your password, you can use a utility such as
Microsoft’s password strength meter.
Confirm Password Re-enter the password to confirm its spelling.
This field is available only when Authentication is Local or RADIUS +
Local.
