Field Field description More information
Name

Your name, which identifies you to other users.

Changing this field does not change your log-in User ID.

E.164 phone number

Associates an E.164 telephone number with your user account.

This limits the setup you will need to do each time you join a video conference. When the MCU receives a call from this number, it will be recognized as coming from your phone. If the device is an audio-only phone, you can set up an associated video endpoint and/or upload a picture file.

This field is not available for the admin or guest accounts.

Associated video endpoint

Associates a configured H.323 endpoint with your user account.

If you call in to the MCU from your E.164 phone number using an audio-only device, the MCU calls your associated video endpoint and sends the conference video stream to that associated video endpoint (and receives a video-only stream from that endpoint).

This field is not available for the admin or guest accounts.

Current password

Type your current password.

 
Password

Type your new password.

In advanced account security mode, a new password must be different to the previous 10 passwords that have been used with an account.

Although you can enter text in whichever character set you require, note that some browsers and FTP clients do not support Unicode characters.

In advanced account security mode (configured on the Settings > Security page), passwords must have:

  • at least fifteen characters
  • at least two uppercase alphabetic characters
  • at least two lowercase alphabetic characters
  • at least two numeric characters
  • at least two non-alphanumeric (special) characters
  • not more than two consecutive repeating characters. That is, two repeating characters are allowed, three are not

In advanced account security mode, a password must be different from the previous ten used with that account. Also, a password will expire if it is not changed within 60 days.

If the MCU is not using advanced account security mode, any password can be used.

Note that passwords are stored in the configuration.xml file as plain text unless the MCU is configured (or has ever been configured) to use advanced account security mode. For more information, refer to Configuring security settings.

Re-enter password

Verify your new password.

 

Picture upload
Upload bitmap file

You can upload an image which will display in the conference when you join conferences in audio-only mode.

Click Browse to locate the bitmap image. Then, click Send file to upload the image to the MCU.

The bitmap will only display if you call in to the MCU from your E.164 phone number using an audio-only device and you do not have an associated video endpoint.
