Configuring System Settings - LifeSize Passport User Manual

Configuring System Settings

You can change settings that identify the system to users in the user interface, set the
system date and time, check for updates to license keys, and reset the system to its factory
default settings by accessing Administrator Preferences : System.
Identifying the System
To change the system name, dialing numbers, and geographic location specified for the
system, access Administrator Preferences : System : Identification.
Manually Setting System Date and Time
You can set the system date and time manually as follows:
1. From the System Menu, access Administrator Preferences : System : Date and
Time.
2. Set the time zone.
3. Set the month, day, and year for the date.
4. Set the hour, minute, and second for the time.
5. Select the Set Date and Time button and press OK to save your changes.
Updating License Keys
A current license key must be installed on the system to perform system software upgrades.
A current license key for upgrades is available when a maintenance agreement for the
device is in effect. The Upgrade License field in the System Information page shows the
expiration date of an upgrade license key installed on the system. If the Upgrade License
field is blank or contains a value other than a valid (not expired) date, use the following
information to update or install an upgrade license key on the system.
Note: You can install a patch to a software release with an expired license key if the key
was current when the software was released. The third digit of the three-digit
version number of a release identifies a patch, for example 4.3.1 is patch 1 to
release v4.3.0.
You can check for updates to license keys in either the user interface or the web
administration interface if your LifeSize system has HTTP access through port 80 to the
LifeSize license key server. If your system does not have this access, refer to "Installing a
License Key Manually" on page 48.
