User Interfaces for the MPS

Web Interface

The TANDBERG MPS is normally controlled via the web interface, but any authorized user may schedule meetings on the TANDBERG MPS by using the TANDBERG Management Suite (TMS) or the TANDBERG Scheduler.

In this guide we will describe how to use the web interface of the TANDBERG MPS.

The TANDBERG MPS consists of the Multipoint Control Unit (MCU), and may also include optional Gateway functionality.

Note that the Gateway Configuration tab on the web interface is only visible when the Gateway option is installed.

Start a Web browser and enter the IP address of the MPS.

You can use either http or https, with https recommended for administrative access.

The http settings can be configured after the first login. See System Configuration > Miscellaneous Configuration.

Using the Web Interface

When prompted for login, enter the user name admin and password, TANDBERG (default password).

The Overview page is the opening page and you will see all conferences currently active on the TANDBERG MPS.

SSH and Telnet

The TANDBERG MPS can also be controlled via SSH or Telnet by using a comprehensive set of API commands. This enables the TANDBERG MPS to be controlled by a different user interface, such as an AMX or Crestron control systems.

For the web interface of the TANDBERG MPS

to work properly, make sure you have

set the permission to ‘Allow Scripting’ in the Security Settings in the Web browser.

For further information please see

the document TANDBERG MPS API or http://www.tandberg.com.
