Upgrading the Software

System Management and Maintenance

 

 

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.)

The following table describes the parts of the Software Upgrade page.
