Gather Network Equipment and Address Information - IP Network Services Required Information
It is important that before connecting multiple networks and implementing Multiple Services in the
Collaboration Server, that you obtain the information needed to complete the IP Network Service
configuration for each connected network from your network administrator.
If the RealPresence Collaboration Server (RMX) 2000 you are upgrading does not include RTM
ISDN or RTM LAN cards, you must install at least one RTM LAN card to enable the definition of
multiple Network Services. If no RTM ISDN or RTM LAN cards are installed, the RealPresence
Collaboration Server (RMX) 2000 works in a single Network Service mode and an alarm is issued by
the system. For more details about the installation of RTM LAN cards, see the RealPresence
Collaboration Server (RMX) 2000 Hardware Guide.
