Client-Server Architecture lets users connect all of their IP cameras directly to a server and be able to view/control the cameras by running GSurf on any computer within the server's network. In addition to expanding the ability to monitor and control cameras from anywhere on the network, GSurf Pro features advanced alarm and notification settings, electronic map, search, playback, PTZ control etc.
