Direct connection to the Collaboration Server is necessary if you want to:

● Modify the Collaboration Server’s Factory Default Management Network settings without using the 

USB memory stick.

● Connect to the Collaboration Server’s Alternate Management Network for support purposes.
● Connect to the Collaboration Server via a modem.

If you do not want to use the USB memory stick method of modifying the Collaboration Server’s 
Management Network parameters, it is necessary to establish a direct connection between a workstation 
and the Collaboration Server.

The Alternate Management Network enables direct access to the Collaboration Server (RMX) 1500/ 
2000/4000) for support purposes. 

While being separate from all other networks, it has identical functionality to the Management Network. 

Support personnel can log in and use it to manage the Collaboration Server if a connection to the 
Management Network cannot be made or if internet access to the host network is blocked by LAN security 
or a firewall.

The Alternate Management Network cannot be configured and operates according to factory defaults. 

The administrator’s Login name, Password, viewing and system permissions on the Alternate Management 
Network are the same as those on the Management Network. 

Once logged in, the RP Collaboration Server Web Client behaves as if the administrator had logged in on 
the Management Network.

The following procedures show how to modify the workstation’s networking parameters using the Windows 
New Connection Wizard.

Note: Ultra Secure Mode
Direct connections to the Collaboration Server are not supported when the Collaboration Server is in 
Ultra Secure Mode. For more information see 

Connection to the Alternate Management Network bypasses LAN and Firewall security. Strict 
control of access to LAN 3 port is recommended.

The Alternate Management Network is only available if Network Separation has not been 
performed. For more information, see
