Configuration

The IP addresses and network parameters which enable communication between the RMX, its management application and the conferencing devices are organized in two IP services:

•Management Network (Control Unit)

•Default IP Service (Conferencing Service)

During the First Entry Configuration, the parameters of these two network services are modified to comply with your local network settings.

Management Network

The Management Network enables communication between RMX Control Unit and the RMX Web Client and is used to manage the RMX.

Default IP Service (Conferencing Service)

The Default IP Service (Conferencing Service) is used to configure and manage communications between the RMX and conferencing devices.

The RMX is shipped with default IP addresses as listed in Table 2-1.

When installing an RMX unit, these default IP addresses must be modified to your local network settings. Therefore it is important that before powering the RMX unit up for the first time, that you obtain the information needed to complete the Local Network Settings section of the table from your network administrator.
