Using the Polycom Web Configuration Utility
This user guide explains how to update phone settings from your phone, using 
your phone’s menu system. If you want, you can update these settings 
remotely with the Polycom Web Configuration Utility.
The phone’s Web Configuration Utility enables you to view and configure 
phone behavior from a computer using any compatible Web browser. The 
utility provides a browser-friendly view of your phone’s current settings. 
Using the utility, you can perform the same updates from your computer that 
you can perform using your phone’s menu system. 
You can access the utility using any compatible Web browser. Before you 
begin, you’ll need to know the IP address of your phone, and the user name 
and password login credentials of the phone user or the phone administrator.
To access the Web Configuration Utility for your phone:
1 Launch the compatible Web browser from a computer on the same 
network as your phone. The supported browsers are:
— Microsoft Internet Explorer (version 7.0 and higher)
— Mozilla Firefox (version 3.0.X and higher)
— Apple Safari (version 5 and higher)
— Google Chrome
2 In the Address Bar of your Web Browser, enter the IP address of your 
phone. 
The IP address is four sets of numbers separated by periods. For example, 
if your phone’s IP address is 123.22.3.4, enter 123.22.3.4 in the address bar.
3 Press the Enter key.
4 From the Web Configuration Utility login screen, select User, and then 
enter the User password.
5 Click Submit.
The Web Configuration Utility Home screen is displayed.
For detailed information on accessing, navigating, and using the utility, see the 
Polycom Web Configuration Utility User Guide, available from the Technical
