Polycom 2000/4000 Configuring the Workstation, Logged in on the Management Network, Separation on

Appendix G-Configuring Direct Connections to RMX

The administrator’s Login name, Password, viewing and system permissions on the Alternate Management Network are the same as those on the Management Network.

Once logged in, the RMX Web Client behaves as if the administrator had

logged in on the Management Network.

Connection to the Alternate Management Network bypasses LAN and Firewall security. Strict control of access to LAN 3 port is recommended.

The Alternate Management Network network is only available if Network

Separation has not been performed. For more information, see "Network

Separation” on page 12-38.

Configuring the Workstation

The following procedures show how to modify the workstation’s networking parameters using the Windows New Connection Wizard.

For non-Windows operating systems an equivalent procedure must be performed by the system administrator.

Before connecting directly, you must modify the IP Address, Subnet Mask and Default Gateway settings of the workstation to be compatible with either the RMX’s Default Management Network or Alternate Management Network.

To modify the workstation’s IP addresses:

1On the Windows Start menu, select Settings > Network

Connections.

2In the Network Connections window, double-click the Local Area Connection that has Connected status.
