Abstract
In a network surveillance unit, a video input unit inputs image information output from a video output device such as a camera or a switcher. A coded image storage unit codes and accumulates the image information. An alarm management unit detects the presence or absence of alarm generation from an alarm generating device, and stores the alarm information. A communication unit receives a request from a display terminal through a network, and transmits the coded image accumulated in the coded image storage unit or the alarm information accumulated in the alarm management unit according to the request.
