2.2 Understanding the Web Interface
2.2.1 Background
The endpoint web interface provides users with a wide array of functions, including calling,
conference control, address book management, system configuration, and device control. The
endpoint web interface enables multiple users to perform operations simultaneously as well as
remotely.
2.2.2 Configuring the Browser
Before using the endpoint web interface for remote management, configure the web browser
on your computer.
Background
The web interface can run on Microsoft Internet Explorer, Mozilla FireFox, and Google
Chrome. Microsoft Internet Explorer 11 is recommended. If you use other browsers or
versions, the user interface (UI) display may appear slightly different. The web interface will
still work as expected.
Before you begin, ensure that the latest patches for the operating system and browser are installed.
It is recommended that you use Microsoft Internet Explorer 11 or later. Microsoft has stopped
maintaining versions earlier than Internet Explorer 11 or releasing patches for them. Using any of
the earlier versions may pose security risks.
Procedure
The following description uses Window7 as an example to describe how to configure

10 Security Maintenance
To ensure proper and secure running of the telepresence system, you need to know application
layer accounts and their default passwords and security maintenance methods, as well as
security maintenance principles and policies at the system, network, and management layers.
10.1 Overview
This section describes the overall purpose of security maintenance, as well as specific
purposes of security maintenance at the application layer, system layer, network layer, and
management layer.
10.1.1 Purpose of Security Maintenance
Security management regulations should be established based on security maintenance
suggestions and problems found in daily operations to ensure proper and secure running of the
videoconferencing system.
Now application systems face severe security threats. Once problems occur, business might be
disturbed, profits reduced, or even systems break down. Users must build up and maintain the
application system security from different layers, and discover and solve potential threats in
advance.
Besides, considering the endless emergence of safety threats, a mere dependence on
technology can hardly ensure the application system security. Users must build up a safety
management system based on security maintenance suggestions and problems they found
during the use of the endpoint to ensure a smooth and safe operation of the endpoint.
10.1.2 What Is Layered Security Maintenance
Service systems must be maintained at the application layer, system layer, network layer, and
management layer.
According to the target and purpose of security maintenance, maintenance personnel must
safeguard the service system from different layers.
Application Layer
Security maintenance of the application layer is to protect the endpoint and its web
management system so that they can provide services to users with a smooth operation.

System Layer
Security maintenance of the system layer is to ensure a smooth operation of the operating
system, which can support the operation of application software.
Network Layer
Security maintenance of the network layer is to ensure that network devices, such as the
switch, router, and firewall, function properly and that security strategies are implemented at
the network layer.
Management Layer
Security maintenance of the management layer is to strengthen people's management and
avoid threats. Maintenance from the management layer involves the maintenance operations
at all preceding layers.
10.2 Application Layer Security
This section describes application layer accounts and their default passwords and functions, as
well as security configurations at the application layer.
10.2.1 Application Layer Account List
This section describes application layer accounts and their default passwords, functions, and
configuration methods. To ensure account security, you are advised to change the password at
the first login and regularly change the password afterward.
Administrator Password of the Remotely Controlled UI
This section describes the default password of the remotely controlled UI administrator and
relevant settings and precautions.
The default administrator password of remote control interface is 12345678. To improve
device security, set a password at your first login and regularly change the password
afterward.
It is recommended that you set a complex password. A simple or empty password brings security risks.
To set the administrator password for logging in to the remote control interface, perform the
following steps:
On the remotely controlled UI, choose System Settings > More > Administrator
Password, and set the password.
On the web interface, choose System Settings > Security > GUI, and set the password.
You need the administrator password to access the System Settings page. Contact the system
administrator to obtain the password.
Web Management Account
Web login accounts are classified into admin, and api. Keep your administrator account and
password secure to prevent personal information disclosure.

The similarities of admin, and api accounts are as follows:
The account and password can be used to log in to the web interface, Telnet, and SSH.
Rights except user name and password change policies are the same: able to read and
write other configuration items; and able to invoke all HTTP interfaces.
The differences of admin, and api accounts lie in the rights in changing other user names and
passwords:
The admin account can be used to change the user name and password of the api
account with the verification of the old password of the admin account.
The api account can be used to change the user name and password of the admin
account with the verification of the old password of the api account.
Table 10-1 lists the default user names and passwords for admin, and api accounts.

If the problem persists,
the current noise is
caused by audio device or
cable issues.
Replace the cables or repair the audio
devices.
If the problem is
rectified, check the
grounding status of the
audio devices and
endpoint.
If the audio devices' shells are
grounded, the endpoint's shell must be
grounded nearby.

grounded, the endpoint's shell does not
need to be grounded either.
Specifically, change the endpoint's AC
three-core power supply to two-core
power supply.
While the

If no audio is delivered
from the display device
during the audio test, the
problem exists at your
site.
If the chair site has muted the speaker
of your site, contact the chair site to
resolve this problem.
If the display device volume is adjusted
to the lowest, restore the volume to its
default value.
If the endpoint volume is adjusted to
the lowest, restore the volume to its

802.1X
An access control and authentication protocol based on the client/server mode. It can
prevent unauthorized users/equipment from accessing the LAN/WLAN through an
access port. After a client (STA) is associated with an AP, the 802.1X authentication
result determines whether the STA can use the wireless services provided by the AP.
If the STA passes the authentication, the STA can access the resources in the WLAN.
If the STA fails to pass the authentication, the STA cannot access the resources in the
WLAN.

HTTPS
See Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure.
Hypertext Transfer
Protocol (HTTP)
An application-layer protocol used for communications between web servers and
browsers or other programs. HTTP adopts the request-response mode. A client sends
a request to the server. The request consists of two parts: request header and
MIME-like message. The request header contains request method, uniform resource
locator (URL), and protocol version. The MIME-like message contains request
modifiers, client information, and possible body content. Upon receiving the request,
the server responds with a status line. The status line includes the message's protocol
version, a success or error code, and a MIME-like message, which contains server
information, entity meta-information, and possible entity-body content. For details
about HTTP, see RFC2616.
Hypertext Transfer
Protocol Secure
(HTTPS)
An HTTP protocol that runs on top of transport layer security (TLS) and Secure
Sockets Layer (SSL). It is used to establish a reliable channel for encrypted
communication and secure identification of a network web server. For details, see
RFC2818.

IPv4
See Internet Protocol version 4.
IPv6
See Internet Protocol version 6.
Internet Protocol
version 4 (IPv4)
The current version of the Internet Protocol (IP). IPv4 utilizes a 32bit address which
is assigned to hosts. An address belongs to one of five classes (A, B, C, D, or E) and
is written as 4 octets separated by periods and may range from 0.0.0.0 through to
255.255.255.255. Each IPv4 address consists of a network number, an optional
subnetwork number, and a host number. The network and subnetwork numbers
together are used for routing, and the host number is used to address an individual
host within the network or subnetwork.
Internet Protocol
version 6 (IPv6)
An update version of IPv4, which is designed by the Internet Engineering Task Force
(IETF) and is also called IP Next Generation (IPng). It is a new version of the
Internet Protocol. The difference between IPv6 and IPv4 is that an IPv4 address has
32 bits while an IPv6 address has 128 bits.

Simple Network
Management Protocol
(SNMP)
A network management protocol of TCP/IP. It enables remote users to view and
modify the management information of a network element. This protocol ensures the
transmission of management information between any two points. The polling
mechanism is adopted to provide basic function sets. According to SNMP, agents,
which can be hardware as well as software, can monitor the activities of various
devices on the network and report these activities to the network console workstation.
