Auto-Surveillance VLAN

Network communication between surveillance devices such as cameras and monitoring equipment should often be given higher priority and it is important that the various devices that comprise the surveillance infrastructure in the organization are reachable for each-other. Normally, it falls to the network administrator to ensure that all surveillance devices are connected to the same VLAN and to setup this VLAN and the interfaces on it to allow for this high priority traffic.

The Auto Surveillance VLAN (ASV) feature automates aspects of this setup by detecting surveillance devices on the network, assigning them to a VLAN and setting their traffic priority.
