Remote Access

Remote access means using a Polycom HDX system in some way other than
through the local interface, such as by using the web, a serial port, or telnet. A
session is an instance of a user connected to the system through one of these
interfaces. Sessions include an indication of how you are logged on to the HDX
system, such as the local interface, web interface, Telnet, or serial API.
These are the main sets of remote access configuration settings:
• Remote access controls
• Remote session settings
