Connectors provide a secure and authenticated interface between a customer’s network and the Axis Security cloud. Connectors are deployed on network segments that can access secured applications and the Atmos Cloud simultaneously.

Connectors should be located in a network that has connectivity to your applications.

High Availability

Applications are associated with Connector Zones. It is important to associate at least 1 connector per connector zone in production. This is important for ensuring high availability. Thus, if a server or VM with a running connector fails, the application remains secured and accessible by at least one more running connector.

📘

Note

The best practice is to associate a minimum of 2 Connectors per Connector Zone.

Viewing Connectors

To view the Connectors window, in the Management Console go to the Settings-> Connectors screen.
