Configuring Network Use
This chapter lists the information you need to get your network ready for video
conferencing. Once you’ve gathered that information, you can begin configuring
the system’s network options. Details on how to perform this configuration are
also included in this chapter.
When you power on your system for the first time, the setup wizard detects the
system’s IP and ISDN connections and leads you through the minimum
configuration steps required to place a call.
If you need to change any of the initial settings to accommodate your environment,
you can manually adjust them using the screens described in this chapter.
Note that if you establish an administrator’s password during the setup wizard,
you will need to enter it each time you wish to change advanced settings.
