Step 4. Click Update.
Step 5. You will need to restart the Cisco Unified Communications Manager service for these changes to take
effect. Restarting these Cisco Unified Communications Manager services causes a service disruption. To
minimize disruption, be sure to schedule this task for a time when system maintenance is being done.

Preparing Cisco TelePresence Video Communication Server
Cisco TelePresence Video Communication Server (VCS) serves as a call-control appliance for the Cisco
TelePresence C Series, E Series, and other similar video endpoints.
Enable HTTP
You can access Cisco TelePresence VCS through a web browse, http://<vcs_serveraddress>, where
<vcs_serveraddress> is the IP address or hostname of your VCS appliance. The default password for the
administrator user admin is TANDBERG. If you cannot log in to the web GUI, Cisco Prime Collaboration will not be
able to log in either. Unless this problem is fixed, Cisco Prime Collaboration will not be able to successfully manage
the VCS. If the password is left blank, Cisco Prime Collaboration will not be able to manage it either; it is not
recommended to leave the password blank.
Enable SNMP
You can easily turn on SNMP from the Cisco VCS web GUI. Navigate to System > SNMP and enter all the SNMP
information. Figure 21 is a sample screen shot showing how SNMPv2 is configured.
