Abstract: A method and apparatus are disclosed for configuring access privileges in a system of networked devices. A plurality of access identities is selected and information of access privileges of each of the selected access identities to accessible functions of networked devices is retrieved. The access privileges of the selected access identities for each one of said accessible function of each one of said networked devices is accumulated. The accumulated access privileges are presented for each one of said accessible function of each one of said networked devices in an interface allowing editing of the accumulated access privileges. Change in accumulated access privileges to a specific function in a specific networked device is indicated, and the specific function of the specific networked device is configured for allowing access by the selected users in accordance with the indicated change of accumulated access privileges.

Abstract: A method for configuring parameter values for a plurality of cameras (100a-100f) is disclosed. In the first step of the method, image data from the plurality of cameras (100a-100f) is acquired. Secondly, the image data from the plurality of cameras (100a-100f) is buffered. Thirdly, the buffered image data from the plurality of cameras (100a-100f) is displayed. Fourthly, at least one parameter value for a first subset of said plurality of cameras is changed. Fifthly, the at least one parameter value is transmitted to said first subset of cameras. Sixthly, the changed image data from a second subset of said plurality of cameras is acquired. Seventhly, the buffered image data for said second subset of cameras is replaced with said changed image data for said second subset of cameras. Finally, the stored image data for said plurality of cameras (100a-100f) is displayed.
