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.
The RMX is shipped with default IP addresses as listed in Table 2-1.
Default IP Service (Conferencing Service)
The Default IP Service (Conferencing Service) is used to configure and
manage communications between the RMX and conferencing devices.

IP Network Services Required Information

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. The network administrator
should allocate four IP addresses in the local network for an MCU with
one MPM card and five IP addresses for an MCU with two MPM cards.
