Managing the System Remotely

You can configure, manage, and monitor the system from a computer using the system’s web interface, VSX Web. You can also use the Polycom Global Management System, SNMP, or the API commands.

Your choice of management tool depends on your network environment:

•VSX Web requires only a web browser.

•Polycom Global Management System requires the Global Management System application to be installed on your network.

•SNMP requires network management software on your network management station.

•For more information about the API commands, refer to the Integrator’s Reference Manual for the VSX Series.
