Step 2 - Add a Polycom DMA Connector
To add a Polycom RMX Connector, you need:
- Access to the FQDN/IP address of the DMA from the WXP Collaboration Data Collector
- Port 8443 must be open between the WXP Collaboration Data Collector and the Polycom DMA
- Credentials for the user service account on the Polycom DMA
-
Sign in to the WXP Collaboration Admin Portal with your credentials.
-
From the menu or icon, select Infrastructure > New Infrastructure.
-
From the list of infrastructure types, click Polycom DMA.

-
Enter the connection and account details for Polycom DMA:

We recommend using the hostname instead of the IP address, because IP addresses may change. Use a friendly, descriptive name for the infrastructure to make it easier to identify.
- In Description, enter details such as device type, location, or other unique identifiers.
- In the Hostname/IP Address, enter the Polycom DMA hostname or IP address.
- Enter the administrator Username and Password.
- Select Save.
- After saving, the page displays two new buttons: Disabled (top) and Validate (bottom).
- Select Validate to confirm the collector can connect to the infrastructure. A pop-up window appears.

- If validation fails, select the Details arrow for more information (for example, invalid login credentials or network connection issues). Correct the problem and retry.
- When validation succeeds, click the Disabled button to the Enabled state to start monitoring and data collection.
