Milestone recommends Milestone Interconnect for creating connected multi-site
systems with multiple domains.
Alternative 3: Connect sites in workgroup(s)
When you connect sites inside workgroups, the same administrator account must be present on all servers you
want connected in the federated site hierarchy. You must define the administrator account before you install
the system.
1. Log into Windows using a common administrator account.
2. Start the installation of the product and click Custom.
3. Select to install the Management Server service using the common administrator account.
4. Finish the installation. Repeat steps 1-4 to install any other systems you want to connect. You must
install all of these systems using the common administrator account.
5. Add site to hierarchy (see Add site to hierarchy on page 295).
Milestone recommends Milestone Interconnect for creating connected multi-site
systems when the sites are not part of a domain.
You cannot mix domain(s) and workgroup(s). This means that you cannot connect sites
from a domain to sites from a workgroup and vice versa.
Add site to hierarchy
As you expand your system, you can add sites to your top site and to its child sites as long as the system is set
up correctly.
When adding a non-secure site to Milestone Federated Architecture, make sure that Allow non-secure
connections to the server is enabled under Tools > Options > General settings in Management Client.
1. Select the Federated Site Hierarchy pane.
2. Select the site to which you want to add a child site, right-click, and click Add Site to Hierarchy.
3. Enter the URL of the requested site in the Add Site to Hierarchy window and click OK.
4. The parent site sends a link request to the child site and after a while, a link between the two sites is
added to the Federated Site Hierarchy pane.
