Polycom, Inc. 27
Once you have created this machine account on the CMA system, provide this
information to the appropriate HDX system administrator. They should enter
this User ID and Password as the User Name and Password on the HDX
Provisioning Service page.
Note that the machine account password expires after one year. After the
expiration, the HDX login will fail. After three failed login attempts, the
system locks the machine account. You can reset the password and unlock the
machine account by editing it and assigning a new password.
System Administration in Maximum Security Mode
Only users assigned the Administrator role can perform general CMA system
administration functions. The CMA system administration functionality and
workflow on a CMA system operating in maximum security mode has
changed. The following sections describe the areas of functionality and how
they have changed.
Users assigned the Administrator role can see the system Dashboard, the
Admin menu, and the pages and ACTIONS associated with it.
Unlock Machine
Account
Select this option to unlock machine accounts that
become locked when they exceed the Failed login
threshold. This will only happen when the password
expires.
User ID Enter a unique name for the machine account.
As a best practice, name the machine account in a way
that associates it with the corresponding device. For
example, if your company names endpoint systems for
the system user or room (for example,
bsmith_HDX
or
Evergreen_Room
), then give the machine account an
associated User ID (
bsmith_HDX_machine
or
evergreen_room_machine
).

Enter a password for the machine account user ID.
This password must meet the Local Password
Requirements. This password expires in 365 days.

a specific user or room. This may be a local or
enterprise user or room.

room (created
automatically)
Select this option to associate the endpoint system with
a system-generated room name.
