RMX 2000 Installation &

Configuration Guide

General Safety Precautions

Follow these rules to ensure general safety:

• Keep the area around the Polycom RMX 2000 unit clean and free of

clutter and well ventilated.

• Decide on a suitable location for the equipment rack that will hold

the RMX, ensuring that it is near a grounded power outlet.

• Ensure that the leveling jacks on the bottom of the rack are fully

extended to the floor with the full weight of the rack resting on

them. Always make sure the rack is stable before extending a

component from the rack.

• In a single rack installation, attach stabilizers to the rack. In

multiple rack installations, the racks should be coupled together.

• Use a regulating uninterruptable power supply (UPS) to protect the

RMX from power surges and voltage spikes, and to keep it

operating in case of a power failure.

• Allow the power supply units to cool before touching them.

• Always keep the rack’s trays and board’s closed when not

servicing, to maintain proper cooling.

Preparations

Obtain the following information from your network administrator:

• IP addresses, Subnet Mask and Default Gateway IP address

(optional) for the RMX control unit and RMX Shelf Management

• IP addresses for the RMX Signaling Host and Media Boards

• Gatekeeper IP address

• SIP server IP address, if applicable

If ISDN/PSTN is installed in your conferencing environment, obtain the

following information from your ISDN/PSTN Service Provider:

• Switch Type, Line Coding and Framing, Numbering Plan and

Numbering Type

• Dial-in number range

Unpacking and Installing the RMX

1Place the RMX 2000 on a stable flat surface in the selected location.

2Remove the RMX 2000 from its package. You can install it either in

a rack or place it on a flat surface:

—Install the RMX on a rack using one of two methods:

• Install the brackets supplied by the rack manufacturer on

each side of the rack on which the RMX is placed. Secure

the system by fastening four screws to the rack on the

front panel.

• Install a shelf supplied by the rack manufacturer on top of

which the RMX is placed. Secure the system by fastening

four screws to the rack on the front panel.

—Place the RMX 2000 on a secure, flat and clean surface.

3Connect the following cables to the RMX rear panel:

—Power cable - insert the connector firmly into the socket so that

almost all of the narrow section of the connector is inserted.

—LAN cable to the LAN 2 port.

—E1/T1 Cables to PRI ports (if applicable)

If the RMX is connected to the public ISDN Network, an external

CSU or similar equipment is needed.

•Do not remove the protective caps from LAN1, LAN3 and ShMG

ports.

•To maximize conferencing performance, especially in high bit

rate call environments, a 1Gb connection is recommended.

Product Registration and Activation Key Retrieval

Before starting the initial configuration process, register your RMX at

the Polycom Resource Center website and download the product

activation key file to the computer you will use for the configuration:

1Using a Web browser, connect to www.polycom.com.

2In the Services section, click the Product Registration link.

3If required, select to open a New User Account or enter your User

ID and Password and then click Sign In.

4Follow the on-screen instructions to complete product registration.

Write down the Product Activation Key number or copy it for later.

Initial RMX Configuration

The system is shipped with the following default IP addresses:

• Control unit IP address – 192.168.1.254

• Shelf Management IP Address – 192.168.1.252

• Control unit subnet mask – 255.255.255.0

• Default Router IP Address – 192.168.1.1

When the RMX is installed for the first time, you must change the

default IP addresses to your local network settings. This can be done by

modifying the default settings in the USB key shipped with the unit

using the LAN Configuration Utility and uploading them to the RMX.

1Plug the USB key into a PC.

2Double-click LanConfigUtility.exe to start the utility.

3Modify the required network parameters in the utility’s dialog box

using the information supplied by your network administrator.

4Click OK.

5Insert the USB key with the modified IP addresses in the USB port

on the back panel.

6Power the RMX On.

The parameters in the lan.cfg file are uploaded from the USB key to

the RMX’s memory and applied during the power-up sequence.

During the First-time Power-up the red ERR LED on the RMX’s

front panel remains ON until both the Management and IP

Network Services have been defined.

When the RMX's configuration is completed (including the

Management and IP Network Services), and if there are no System

Errors, the green RDY LED on the CNTL module (on the RMX’s

front panel) turns ON.

7Remove the USB key.

Connecting to the MCU

1Start the RMX Web Client application on the workstation by

entering in your browser’s address line the IP Address of the

control unit as defined in the USB key in the format http://

<Control Unit IP Address> and pressing Enter.

2In the RMX Web Client Welcome Screen, enter the default Username

(POLYCOM) and Password (POLYCOM) and click Login.

The RMX Web Client opens.

The following steps are performed on first entry:

3The Product Activation dialog box appears with the serial number

filled in.

In the Activation Key field, enter or paste the Product Activation Key

retrieved earlier and click OK.

If you do not have an Activation Key, click the Polycom Resource

Center button to access the Service & Support page of the Polycom

website.

The system prompts with a reset dialog box.

As no Default IP Network Service is defined, the system

automatically starts the Fast Configuration Wizard.

The Fast Configuration Wizard appears.

Configuring the IP Network Service

The Fast Configuration Wizard enables you to configure the Default IP

Service. It starts automatically if no Default IP Network Service is defined.

This happens during First Time Power-up,before the service has been

defined or if the Default IP Service has been deleted, followed by an RMX

reset.

The IP Management Service tab in the Fast Configuration Wizard is

enabled only if the default Management IP addresses were not

modified.
