IP Network Services
Two IP Services are defined for the RMX:
Management Network
Default IP Service (Conferencing Service)
Management Network (Primary)
The Management Network is used to control the RMX, mainly via the RMX 
Web Client application. The Management Network contains the network 
parameters that connect between the RMX and the RMX Web Client.
Management Network
 parameters include the IP address of the Control 
Unit. This IP address can be used by the administrator or service 
personnel to connect to the Control Unit should the RMX become 
corrupted or inaccessible. For more information, see Appendix G, 
.
During First Time Power-up, the Management Network parameters can be 
set either via a USB key or by using a cable to create a private network. For 
more information, see the RMX 2000 Getting Started Guide, "Procedure 3: 
.
Default IP Service (Conferencing Service)
The Default IP Service (Conferencing Service) is used to configure and 
manage communications between the RMX and conferencing devices 
such as endpoints, gatekeepers, SIP servers, etc.
The Default IP Service contains parameters for:
Signaling  Host  IP  Address
MPM boards (media processors)
External conferencing devices
Calls from all external IP entities are made to the Signaling Host, which 
initiates call set-up and assigns the call to the appropriate MPM board.
Conferencing related definitions such as environment (H.323 or SIP) are 
also defined in this service.
