Note
This version of the Polycom DMA system eliminates the need for virtual host
name(s) and IP addresses in a single-server system. When a version 5.0 or earlier
single-server DMA system is upgraded to version 5.1 or later, the previous version's
virtual host name(s) and IP addresses become the upgraded version's physical
host name(s) and IP addresses, so accessing the system doesn't change.
(Exception: If only IPv6 is enabled, the system must have two addresses, so a
single-server system must still have a virtual host name and IP address.)
