Managing the System Remotely

You configure, manage, and monitor the system from a remote computer using the

system’s web interface, the Polycom Management Access (PMAC) Wizard, the

Polycom Global Management System

™

, or SNMP.

Your choice of management tool depends on your network environment:

❑ The Web Interface requires only a web browser to control the system.

❑ You can download the PMAC Wizard and the Address Book Utility at

www.polycom.com/videosoftware.

❑ Using the Polycom Global Management System requires the GMS application

to be installed on your network.

❑ SNMP requires network management software on your network management

station.
