Introduction
The Avigilon™ Gateway Web Client works with the Avigilon™ Control Center Gateway to give
users remote access to your Avigilon™ Control Center System. The Gateway Web Client is a
simplified web browser version of the Avigilon Control Center Client software that gives you
access to Sites and cameras configured by the Gateway.
The Gateway Web Client differs from the Avigilon Control Center Web Client in that the Gateway
Web Client accesses the Avigilon Control Center system through the Gateway to protect the
security of the server. The Avigilon Control Center Web Client requires direct access to the
server and may not be accessible outside of your local area network.
