Managing AvertX Connect User accounts
Proactively managing AvertX Connect user accounts is recommended. User accounts with administrative - Admin - permissions have access to the entire account. Admin users have the ability to make changes that can drastically affect your AvertX Connect account's performance.
Only invite trusted individuals, and limit the number of accounts with administrator permissions. This will allow you to better account for changes, like adding or deleting recorders, adding or deleting users, etc.... Accounts with Admin permissions can also log into an associated ProConnect recorder(s) and change the local admin account's password.
If you need help adding users to your AvertX Connect account, use this account management article.

Only User Accounts with Admin permissions have access to the "Recorders, Manage Users and Videos" sections of AvertX Connect :

Recorders
An account with administrator permissions can manage the following Recorder options in AvertX Connect:
General Settings:
- Allows you to change the name of your recorder

Remote Network Settings
- In some cases, an external IP address can be configured to remotely connect to the recorder. This option requires port forwarding, and may need additional configuration changes by the Internet service provider (ISP).
Configuration Files
