Web Access Port
(http)
Specifies the port to use when accessing the system using
the Polycom HDX web interface.
If you change this from the default (port 80), specify a port
number of 1025 or higher, and make sure the port is not
already in use. You will need to include the port number with
the IP address when you use the Polycom HDX web
interface to access the system. This makes unauthorized
access more difficult.
Note: The system restarts if you change the web access
port.
Allow Video
Display on Web
Specifies whether to allow viewing of the room where the
system is located, or video of calls in which the system
participates, using the Polycom HDX web interface.
Note: This feature activates both near site and far site video
displays in Web Director.
Connect to my
LAN
Specifies whether the system is part of the LAN.
Changing this setting causes the system to restart.
If Connect to my LAN is disabled, a Polycom HDX system
cannot pair with a Polycom Touch Control.
Allow Access to
User Settings
Specifies whether the User Settings screen is accessible to
users via the System screen.
Select this option if you want to allow users to change
limited environmental settings. Refer to Enabling Secure
Access on page 8-8 for a description of how security profiles
affect what users can change.
