IP Services
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 the RMX
Control Unit and the RMX Web Client and is used to manage the RMX.
The RMX is shipped with default IP addresses as listed in Table 2-1.
Management Network Definition
The definition of the Management Network can be done by two methods:
•
USB key (recommended method) – The system is shipped with a
USB key containing the default IP addresses for the control unit and
the shelf management.
These defaults are first modified in the PC and then uploaded to the
RMX.
• Direct connection – Creating a private network between the RMX
and the computer and modifying the management network
parameters using Fast Configuration Wizard in the RMX Web Client.
For more information, see the RMX 1500/2000/4000 Administrator’s
Guide, ”Configuring Direct Connections to RMX” on page G-1 .
Default IP Service (Conferencing Service)
The Default IP Service (Conferencing Service) is used to configure and
manage communications between the RMX and conferencing devices.
