RMX 2000 Administrator's Guide Version 7.6.1 - Polycom

Polycom RMX 1500/2000/4000 Administrator’s Guide
Guidelines
• The RMX maintains a local record of:
— Audit Events – users that generate these events are marked as being either internal
or external.
— Successful user logins
— Failed user login attempts
• User passwords and user lockout policy for external users are managed via Active
Directory’s integration with the user’s host machine.
• Enabling or disabling Active Directory integration does not require a reset.
• In Standard Security Mode multiple accounts of all user types are supported. In Ultra
Secure Mode, enabling Active Directory integration is only permitted if the RMX only has
one local Administrator User.
• Multiple Machine Accounts with various roles are supported.
• Microsoft Active Directory is the only directory service supported.
• Active Directory integration is configured as part of the Management Network.
• Both IPv4 and IPv6 addressing are supported.
• In Standard Security Mode, the Active Directory can be queried using NTLM with or
without TLS encryption. In Ultra Secure Mode, TLS encryption is required.
• Server and client certificate validation requests use LDAP with or without TLS
encryption.
