Procedure 7: Enable Network Separation (Rmx 2000); Enabling Network Separation - Polycom 1500 Deployment Manual

Polycom RealPresence Collaboration Server (RMX)1500/2000/4000 Deployment Guide for Maximum Security Environments

Procedure 7: Enable Network Separation (RMX 2000)

The RMX 2000, prior to the Network Separation procedure, hosts all signaling, management,
and media traffic via the LAN 2 port.
Network Separation is enabled/disabled according to the setting of the
SEPARATE_MANAGEMENT_NETWORK System Flag. When the System Flag is set to
YES, media and signaling traffic between IP endpoints and the RMX is hosted via the LAN
2 port, while RMX management sessions are hosted via the LAN 3 port.
The RMX 1500 and RMX 4000 are designed with separate ports and networks for signaling,
management and media, therefore this flag setting is not relevant. For more information see
"Connecting Cables to the RMX 1500" on page
on page 1-20.
