Polycom RMX 4000 Merkblatt

This section describes the definition of H.323 Network Service. For detailed description 

of H.323, SIP and ISDN Network Service definitions, see the RMX Getting Started Guide, 
“First Time Installation and Configuration”.

In the Fast Configuration Wizard, select Next to move from one window to another.

In the IP Network Service creation confirmation, click OK.

 

Click Save & Close.

In the Success Message box confirming successful configuration, click OK.

10 In the Reset Confirmation dialog box, click Yes.
11 In the Please wait for system reset message box, click OK.

12 Refresh the browser periodically until the Login screen is displayed and Login.

In the Main Screen an MCU State indicator displays the time remaining until the 

system start-up is complete.

13 Create a new User with Administrator permissions and delete the default User 

(POLYCOM). For system security reasons, only when this step is completed and if 

there are no System Errors, the system is fully configured and the green RDY LED 

on the CNTL module (on the RMX’s front panel) turns ON.

The RMX is shipped with pre-configured default conferencing entities that can be used 

to dial in and start conferences. Default (Transit) Entry Queue ID: 1000, default Meeting 

Room IDs: 1001, 1002, 1003, and 1004.

H.323 Participants
H.323 participants dial: 
[MCU Prefix in Gatekeeper][Conference or Entry Queue ID/Name]

 

For example, if the MCU prefix in gatekeeper is 925, you can dial to the default (Transit) 

Entry Queue by entering 925 or 9251000 and be routed to Meeting Rooms by entering its 

ID (i.e. 1001, 1002, 1003 or 1004). You can connect directly to one of the default Meeting 

Rooms, by dialing its number, for example: 9251001. 

Alternatively, you can use the Entry Queue or conference name to connect directly to 

the conference. For example, if the conference name is Maple_Room, the participant can 

dial: 925Maple_Room. 

SIP Participants
The dialing string is composed of the conference routing name as registered with the 

SIP server and domain name in the format: conference_name@domain_name
For example, if conference routing name is 1001, the string is 1001@polycom.com.

ISDN and PSTN Participants
ISDN and PSTN participants can connect to conferences and Meeting Rooms directly or 

via an Entry Queue by dialing one of the numbers (including the country and area code 

if needed) assigned to the conference, Meeting Room or Entry Queue. When connecting 

to an EQ they are routed to their conference according to the conference ID. For 

example, if the assigned dial in number is 4045555, the ISDN/PSTN endpoint dials this 

number with the appropriate area code (for example, 678) and country code (001).

On the RMX 4000, IPv4 is the default protocol for setting the Network Service in the 
Fast Configuration Wizard.

Change the default service 
name if required.

Enter the address to be 
used by IP endpoints when 
dialing in to the MCU.

Enter the IP address(es) of 
the media card(s).

Enter the subnet mask of 
the MCU. 

Enter the IP address of the 
default router.

Enter the name of the MCU 
on the network.

Optional. Select Specify to 
define a DNS server.

Optional. Define the DNS 
server properties:

•

Registration mode

•

The name of the MCU 
domain 

•

The static IP address of 
the primary DNS server

Select H.323 as the IP 
Network Type. 

Select Specify to configure 
the gatekeeper parameters. 

Enter gatekeeper’s host 
name or IP address. 

Enter the string with which the 
MCU registers itself with the 
gatekeeper. 
Enter the alias that identifies 
the RMX’s Signaling Host 
within the network. Up to five 
aliases can be defined for 
each RMX. 

Optional. Modify the default 
settings of the system flags 
that define the general 
system behavior such as the 
number of digits in the 
conference ID assigned by 
the MCU.
These flags can be modified 
later, if required, by selecting 
the System Configuration 
option from the Setup menu.
