Defining a SIP Network Service in the RMX and Installing the Security
Certificate
Your RealPresence Collaboration Server system should be installed according to standard
installation procedures. For details, see the Polycom® RealPresence Collaboration Server (RMX)

When configuring the Default IP Network Service on first entry, or when modifying the
properties of the existing Default IP Network Service, the SIP environment parameters must be
set as described in this section.
The Security Certificate
There are two methods to create and send the security certificate that is required for
configuration of the integration of the RMX in the Microsoft environment:
•
•
The CSR Method
In the CSR method, the security certificate is created as part of the SIP Server configuration
in the IP Network Service configuration.
Using the CSR Method, the following processes are performed:

The PFX Method
In the PFX method, the security certificate is created in advance, in the Office
Communications Server or Lync Server environment.
For detailed description of this procedure in the Office Communications Server
environment, see "PFX Method - Creating the Security (TLS) Certificate in the OCS and
Exporting the Certificate to the RMX Workstation" on page H-22.
