How to configure your system

Getting Started Guide
Use a provisioning system, or configure each video system individually
Provisioning allows video conferencing network administrators to manage many video systems simultaneously. In general, you only have to put in the credentials of the provisioning ser ver to each video system; the rest of the configuration is done automatically.
Without a provisioning system, you must configure each video system individually. To be able to make calls, you must set the IP address, if not provided by the network, and SIP/H.323 parameters. You should also set the correct time and date.
Basic configuration with or without a provisioning system is described in this guide.
User interfaces
The principal operating device for your Cisco TelePresence video conference system is either a remote control or a Touch controller. The remote control is not available for the MX series or the SX80.
You can configure your system through its web interface, if the system is already connected to a network and you know the IP address. A limited set of configurations is also available on the Touch controller and the on-screen menu.
We describe the web interface, the on-screen setup assistant and the Touch controller in the following chapter.
Passphrase
Initially, no passphrase is set for the default admin user. It is mandator y to set a passphrase for any user with ADMIN rights in order to restrict access to system configuration. This includes the default admin user.
You can read more about how to set the passphrase in the section ”Passphrase” on page 18.
