User manual POLYCOM PICTURETEL 140 RELEASE NOTE

[. . . ] The installation program "setup. exe" for LiveManager 4. 01 is found in the \disk1 directory of the installation files. The installation files are found on the distribution CD or in the PictureTel release Web site. Web UI service Given these two components and their respective minimum system requirements, it is possible to install LiveManager 4. 01 in several combinations. Please see the PictureTel 140 LiveManager Installation and Administration Guide for detailed installation instructions. [. . . ] Click on the "PictureTel 140 LiveManager" link on the left side of the screen to go to the PictureTel 140 LiveManager home page. Example: · · You installed the LiveManager Web UI service on host N112H200. In a browser session type in the URL: http:\\N112H200\PictureTel\PictureTelWebCenter\wchome. html Restrictions and Recommendations I. DHCP Installation When installing LiveLAN and LiveManager in a DHCP environment, please observe the following guidelines: · Install LiveManager in a Windows NT machine whose IP address is static. LiveLAN clients can be installed on machines with dynamic IP addresses. II. Microsoft ILS Support LiveManager 4. 01 can be configured to register qualified endpoints to a Microsoft ILS server. (Qualified endpoints, such as LiveLAN, are designed to work specifically with LiveManager to register to an ILS server. ) This enables Microsoft NetMeeting clients to call a LiveLAN terminal by selecting it from the ILS directory. III. NT Service Packs It is required that you run the NT system with Service Pack 3 from Microsoft. IV. Internet Information Service (IIS) 4. 0 The PictureTel Web Center and LiveManager Web UI must be installed on an NT Server machine running IIS 4. 0. V. Multiple LiveManagers on the Same Subnet In the unlikely event that you need to install more than one LiveManager on the same subnet be aware that bandwidth management will not limit Out-Of-Zone calls between LiveLANs on that subnet. You will need to manipulate the subnet descriptor and subnet mask in such a way as to virtually divide the subnet. For example, suppose you install two LiveManagers, LM1 and LM2, on subnet 140. 240. 112. xxx. You describe LM1's and LM2's topology as containing segments 140. 240. 112. 0 and *. *. *. * (OutOf-Zone) with a subnet mask of 255. 255. 255. 0. You can "divide" the subnet between the two LiveManagers by describing the topology a little differently. Describe LM1's topology as containing segments *. *. *. * (OOZ) and 140. 240. 112. 0 with a subnet mask of 255. 255. 255. 128. Describe LM2's topology as containing segments *. *. *. * (OOZ) and 140. 240. 112. 128 with a subnet mask of 255. 255. 255. 128. Now, by using this topology, all LiveLANs with an IP address ending in 128 or higher may register only to LM2 and LiveLANs with IP address ending in 127 or lower may register only to LM1. Calls between LiveLANs on the 140. 240. 112. xxx subnet between the two zones will be correctly managed with respect to bandwidth. Helpful Hints 1. File Pruning By Age - Entries in the log files (events. txt, events. txt. v, raslog. txt) which are older than seven days are automatically deleted from the files. Gateway Prefixes - Gateway Dialing Prefix support has been enhanced to support H. 323 version 2 gateway features. LiveManager 4. 01 provides mapping of a "User Prefix" to a gateway prefix supplied by a registered gateway or to the "Default Prefix" which you specify. See the PictureTel 140 LiveManager Installation and Administrator's Guide for further information. [. . . ] You may not always see a message, but this is usually a good place to check. Avoid the failure by always waiting for the selected file to be displayed before selecting another file for viewing. Microsoft's Internet Explorer browser does not fail under the same conditions. If you select "Never" for the auto-logoff timer, you may see the UI go to a disabled display state after a period of time (the last value entered in the auto-logoff timer). [. . . ]
