Configuring Security Mode
You can configure Polycom QDX 6000 systems to use Security Mode, which provides secure access to the system. Security Mode utilizes TLS, HTTPS, AES, digital signatures, and other security protocols, algorithms, and mechanisms to put the system into a secure mode. These protocols encrypt management communication over IP, preventing access by unauthorized users.
Every time you enable Security Mode, you must configure a new password for the system. The password cannot be blank and it cannot be the default value (serial number).
To configure the system to use Security Mode:
1Go to System > Admin Settings > General Settings > Security.
2Enable Security Mode.
When you change this setting, the Polycom QDX 6000 system restarts. Every time a Polycom QDX 6000 system is powered on or restarts in Security Mode, it verifies that the system software is authentic Polycom software.
Points to note about Security Mode:
∙SNMP access is not available in Security Mode.
∙Global Management System and ReadiManager® SE200 are not compatible with Polycom QDX 6000 systems in Security Mode.
∙If Security Mode is enabled, you must enter the room password to go to the Rest System screen (System > Diagnostics > Reset System).
To access a Polycom QDX 6000 system in security mode using the Polycom QDX
6000 Web interface:
1Enter the IP address of the system using secure HTTPS access, for example, https://10.11.12.13.
2Click Yes in the security dialogs that appear. This access uses port 443.
3To access Admin Settings using the Polycom QDX 6000 web interface when a remote access password is set, enter “admin” for the user name.
