Device Provisioning; Tms Agent Account Passwords - Cisco TelePresence Administrator's Manual

Device Provisioning

The TMS Agent works with the TMS Provisioning Directory to replicate and distribute the provisioning
information and phonebook from TMS via VCSs to endpoint devices. VCSs cache and replicate data among
themselves in case connection to TMS is lost.
Note that the Device Provisioning option key must be installed on the VCS.

TMS Agent account passwords

TMS agent is accessed via two accounts: one for connecting via LDAP into the TMS Agent database, and
one for managing the replication of the TMS Agent database. These accounts are only used by the internal
processes running on the VCS and TMS. System administrators must not use these accounts.
These accounts have a username of cn=Directory Manager and a default password of TANDBERG (all
upper case). Both passwords must be changed as soon as possible to maintain security of the VCS data.
Alarms are raised on the web UI and the CLI if either account has the default password set.
If your VCS uses TMS as an external manager, you must use TMS to change the passwords on these
n
accounts.
If your VCS is not managed by TMS, you have to change these passwords by logging into the VCS as the
n
root user. Note that if your VCS is subsequently reconfigured to use TMS, the password must first be reset
to the default value of TANDBERG.
See the TMS Agent passwords
Cisco VCS Administrator Guide (X7.1)
section for full instructions on changing passwords.
