Multiple site security and access
Description of the application
Figure 2-5 shows how a company with multiple sites can
centralize security and access control functions for all sites. This
means an employee only needs to carry a single access card to
gain appropriate access to any company site.
The figure shows a company with three plants, designated sites
A, B, and C. Site C is chosen as the company headquarters for
security and access control purposes.
Each site is a separate SDU project. At each site, the Resource
Profile Manager (RPM) tool is used to create a profile for that
site. This includes site C, the headquarters plant.
All the profiles are sent to the security office at site C for import
into the Keypad Display Configuration (KDC) or Access Control
Database (ACDB) program. This means that the programs will
present all resources at all sites in a single hierarchy, as shown
by the tree diagram.
The security personnel at site C can create global access groups.
This means that they can assign an employee the correct security
and access privileges for all sites from one central location. The
employee can carry a single access card that will grant him the
correct security and access privileges at each site.
