The system should be placed in a secured location and on a firewall-protected
network segment.
To mitigate certain network-based attacks, Polycom recommends that the network
administrator configure port security on the switch to which Polycom devices
connect. Security is enhanced by binding the device's MAC address to a specific
physical port on the switch.
This section describes how to manually configure system settings to meet the
maximum security requirements.
To configure your system for deployment in a maximum security environment:
Download and install the Polycom HDX system software update. For
1
information about installing the software, refer to the release notes for
your software version.
When prompted in the setup wizard:

User Room Password, and a User Remote Access Password that meet
the default password policy as described in

You can modify the password policies after you complete the setup
wizard. For more information about doing this, refer to
Your Room and User Password Policy"
