About the Initial Video Processing Module Configuration

You must also configure an IP address for the video processing module. The IP address of the video processing module must be different than the IP address configured for the Cisco Unified Videoconferencing 3515 MCU unit.

Initial monitoring and administration of the video processing module are performed from a remote PC using a terminal emulation application, such as HyperTerminal. To make the serial connection, connect a PC terminal to the lower serial port on the front panel of the Cisco Unified

Videoconferencing 3515 MCU unit as described in the “Connecting to a PC” section on page 2-5. The serial configuration utility runs as a target configuration service. You can use the serial configuration utility to:

•Configure default network port values.

•Modify the configuration software password.
