Editing a System

Normally, IP address changes are automatically detected for ViewStations, V-Series and ViaVideos. However, certain
circumstances can arise where the server and the endpoints are unable to communicate with one another and this
automatic detection is not possible. This is especially true in the case of IP address changes for WebCommander and
third party endpoints. In this case, the IP address stored in the database must be updated manually.
Device Tracing allows for all video endpoint actions to be traced and recorded in a Device trace log. Device tracing can
be enable here in the Edit System window or in the Reports > Device Tracing page in ReadiManager LX100.
For SoundStation VTX 1000, tracking endpoints and correct/current phone numbers is a manual process. It is
recommended that once the SoundStation VTX 1000 endpoints are configured, the administrator set a policy that
he/she be contacted in the event that SoundStation VTX conference phones are relocated. This will assure that the
Polycom ReadiManager LX100 has the correct phone number for software updates and upgrades.
Edit System
1. Select an Endpoint and click on Edit System. A dialog box will appear.
2. Enter the relevant information for the system or enable device tracing.
3. Click on OK.
Password
A Polycom group video endpoint can be managed when the password set in ReadiManager LX100 matches the
password set on the endpoint. If the password is changed manually from the endpoint, you must update ReadiManager
LX100 with the new password, otherwise the system can longer be managed. By default, endpoints do not have an
administration password set.

NOTE
Entering a password here does not mean that the administration password for a ViewStation has been set. If an
administration password is needed, then it must be set at the unit.
