ActiveX Bypass
At sites that, for security reasons, do not permit Microsoft® ActiveX® to be installed, the MSI (Windows 
Installer File) utility can be used to install .NET Framework and .NET Security Settings components on 
workstations throughout the network.
All workstation that connect to Collaboration Server systems must have both.NET Framework and .NET 
Security Settings running locally. These components are used for communication with the Collaboration 
Server and can only be installed on workstations by users with administrator privileges.
The MSI utility requires the IP addresses of all the Collaboration Server systems (both control unit and Shelf 
Management IP addresses) that each workstation is to connect to. 
If the IP address of the any of the target Collaboration Servers is changed, the ActiveX components must 
be reinstalled.
Installing ActiveX
To install ActiveX components on all workstations in the network:
Download the MSI file EMA.ClassLoaderInstaller.msi from the Polycom Resource Center. 
The MSI file contains installation scripts for both .NET Framework and .NET Security Settings.
Create a text file to be used during the installation containing the IP addresses of all the 
Collaboration Server systems (both control unit and Shelf Management IP addresses) that each 
workstation in the network is to connect to.
The file must be named url_list.txt and must be saved in the same folder as the downloaded MSI file.
Install the ActiveX components on all workstations on the network that connect to Collaboration 
Server systems.
The installation is done by the network administrator using a 3rd party network software installation 
utility and is transparent to all other users.
