Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing network security systems require significant time and manpower to configure and register multiple devices, especially in large-scale installations, making it inefficient and prone to errors.
Innovation Solution
A network security system that includes a spatial information collector, device position receiver, device recommender, device determiner, and device setter to automatically configure and set up devices such as cameras, recorders, and central management devices based on spatial information and user input, reducing the need for manual intervention.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If manual configuration and registration of devices is performed in large-scale network security systems, then device installation flexibility is maintained, but design time and manpower requirements increase significantly
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary actions by automatically generating device configurations and registration information before actual device installation. The server pre-configures network parameters, device settings, and registration data based on spatial information, so that when devices are physically installed, they can be quickly registered and integrated into the network security system without time-consuming manual configuration
Solution Approach 2:
The system enables self-service by allowing devices to be automatically configured and registered through the server's automated processes. The server autonomously generates configuration files, sets network parameters, and registers devices based on spatial information and installation positions, eliminating the need for manual human intervention in the configuration process
2Productivity
If individual device configuration is performed manually, then configuration accuracy can be ensured, but manpower requirements and time consumption increase
Solution Approach 1:
The system uses copying by generating configuration templates and registration information that can be automatically replicated and applied to multiple devices. Once a configuration template is created for a particular device type and spatial location, it can be copied and adapted for similar devices, ensuring consistency and accuracy while dramatically reducing the time and effort required for configuring each individual device
3Loss of time
If automatic device configuration is implemented, then design time is reduced, but system complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The server acts as an intermediary between the spatial information and the device configuration process. It automatically processes spatial information, determines appropriate device settings, generates configuration files, and manages device registration. This intermediary role centralizes the complexity within the server, keeping the client-side devices and manual operations simple while maintaining reduced design time

AI summary
Provided is a network security system including: a spatial information collector configured to acquire, from a manager input terminal, spatial information; a device position receiver configured to receive, from the manager terminal, at least one device installation position with respect to the spatial information and storing the at least one device installation position; a device recommender configured to provide a candidate device list corresponding to the at least one device installation position; a device determiner configured to receive a signal for selecting at least one device from the candidate device list, and determine a model of the at least one selected device to be installed at the at least one device installation position; and a device setter configured to set a setting of the at least one selected device.
