DMA OperationsGuide Network Settings
64 Polycom, Inc.
The following table describes the fields on the Network Settings page. These
values are normally set in the USB Configuration Utility during system
installation and rarely need to be changed. See the Getting Started Guide.
Caution
Changing some network settings (host names, IP addresses, or domains) requires
a system restart and terminates all active conferences.
If the system is using a CA-provided identity certificate, changing some network
settings (host names or IP addresses) also requires you to update the certificate. (If
the system is using a self-signed certificate, an updated one is automatically
created.)
You can’t change these network settings while the system is part of a supercluster
or integrated with a Polycom RealPresence Resource Manager or CMA system.
You must first leave the supercluster or terminate the integration. If the cluster is
responsible for any territories (as primary or backup), reassign those territories.
After the change, rejoin the supercluster or Polycom RealPresence Resource
Manager or CMA system. See “Superclustering” on page 227 or “Resource
Management System Integration” on page 185.
Incorrect network information may make the system unuseable and the
management interface unreachable.
Note
This version of the Polycom DMA system eliminates the need for virtual host
name(s) and IP addresses in a single-server system or cluster. 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.)
