When IPv4 is selected, IPv6 fields are not displayed and conversely when IPv6 is selected,
IPv4 fields are not displayed. When IPv6 & IPv4 is selected both IPv6 and IPv4 fields are

For the purposes of comprehensive documentation, all screen captures in this chapter show
the dialog boxes as displayed with IPv6 & IPv4 selected.
For more information see "Using IPv6 Networking Addresses for RMX Internal and External
Entities” on page 16-32.
Management Network (Primary)
The Management Network is used to control the RMX, mainly via the RealPresence
Collaboration Server Web Client application. The Management Network contains the network
parameters, such as the IP address of the Control Unit, needed for connection between the
RMX and the RealPresence Collaboration Server Web Client. This IP address can be used by the
administrator or service personnel to connect to the Control Unit should the MCU become
corrupted or inaccessible.
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 theRealPresence Collaboration Server 1500/2000/4000 Getting Started
Guide, "Modifying the Factory Default Management Network Settings on the USB Key” on
page 2-6 and Appendix G of this manual, "Configuring Direct Connections to RealPresence
Collaboration Server (RMX)” on page G-1.
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, MPM+ and MPMx media cards (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 / MPM+ / MPMx media card.
Conferencing related definitions such as environment (H.323 or SIP) are also defined in this
service.
Most of the Default IP Service is configured by the Fast Configuration Wizard, which runs
automatically should the following occur:
•First time power-up.
• Deletion of the Default IP Service, followed by a system reset.
From Version 7.1, MPM media cards are not supported.
