Chapter 1 - Introducing the V500 System

Many ways to use the directory — Find information in the directory using the method you find most convenient.

Assign entries to categories — Sort your directory by department or category.

Search by name — Quickly find people by entering the first, middle, or last name.

Find others and let them find you — Register with the Global Directory Server and make it easy to call other registered systems and just as easy for the other registered systems to call you. The system automatically copies the global directory to your system periodically, so entries are always available.

Easy Installation

Firewall (UPnP™) support — The V500 system offers support for routers that support UPnP (Universal Plug and Play) NAT traversal, making video conferencing setup easier for users in homes and small offices.

IP or ISDN calling — The V500 system has a built-in 10/100 Mb Ethernet port for IP calls. Add the optional single BRI network interface to make calls over your ISDN telephone lines.

Easy configuration wizard — The system setup wizard detects your network connections and guides you through configuring the system to work on an IP network or ISDN.

Fully broadband capable — The standards-compliant V500 system works with any other H.323 system.

Auto-sensing power supply — The system automatically adjusts for line voltages from 90 to 260 V and line frequencies from 47 to 63 Hz.

Security and Network Management

Use AES encryption — Enable the integrated AES encryption to automatically encrypt calls to other AES-capable systems, without external encryption equipment.

Remote access — Configure, manage, and monitor the system from a remote computer using the V500 web interface (the system’s web interface), the Polycom Global ManagementSystem, or SNMP. Alternatively, you can choose not to allow remote management.

Secure system management — The local administrator’s password on the system prevents others from changing system configuration while allowing you to manage the system.
