Introduction
User interfaces
Using a provisioning system, or configuring
each video conference 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
server to each video system; the rest of the configuration is
done automatically.
Without a provisioning system, you must configure each video
system individually. As a minimum, you must set the IP 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 the remainder of this chapter.

After setting the menu password, you need to enter it to
configure the video system when using a remote control.
The menu password, as from software version TC7.0, applies
only to the on-screen Administrator Settings menu. It does
not apply to the Administrator menu on the Touch 8 and
Touch 10 control panels.
