Administrator’s Guide for the VSX Series

4 - 36

Select 

and configure these settings:

You can configure VSX 3000A, VSX 5000, VSX 6000A, VSX 7000s, VSX 7000e, 

and VSX 8000 systems to use Security Mode, which provides secure access to 

the system. Security Mode is based on Transport Layer Security (TLS) 1.0 

using 168-bit Triple-DES. These protocols encrypt management 

communication over IP, preventing access by unauthorized users.
Every time you enable Security Mode, you must configure a new password for 

the system. The password cannot be blank and it cannot be the default value 

(serial number).

Specifies whether to allow remote access to the system by:
•

FTP

Web

Telnet

SNMP

You may select any of these, or any combination of them.
Note: The system restarts if you change the remote access 
settings. This setting does not deactivate the associated 
port, only the application. Use Web Access Port to disable 
the port.

Specifies whether to encrypt calls with other sites that 
support AES encryption. If the far site does not have AES 
encryption enabled, the call connects without encryption.

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.

Specifies whether to allow viewing of the room where the 
system is located, or video of calls in which the system 
participates, using VSX Web.
Note: This feature activates both near site and far site video 
displays in Web Director.

Specifies the port to use when accessing the system using 
VSX Web.
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 VSX Web to access the 
system. This makes unauthorized access more difficult.
Note: The system restarts if you change the web access 
port.
