Procedure
1. In the device local interface, go to Settings > Network.
2. Turn the Obtain Automatically Using DHCP setting off.
3. Enter the DNS server addresses your device uses (you can enter up to four addresses).
4. Select Save.
Configure VLAN Settings
You can configure your TC8 device’s virtual LAN (VLAN) settings.
Procedure
1. In the device local interface, go to Settings > Network.
2. Turn the 802.1p/Q setting on and enter a VLAN ID.
The ID specifies the VLAN you want your device to operate on. You can use values from 1 to
4094.
3. Select Save.
Manually Pair the Device with a Video System
You can manually pair the TC8 device connected to your primary network with a video system in the
room.
To pair, the device must be on the same subnet as the video system and the following network
components must be unblocked:
▪ Multicast address 224.0.0.200
▪ UDP port 2000
▪ TCP port 18888
Know the MAC address of the device you’re pairing. You may see multiple devices you can pair with on
your video system’s Device Management page. Knowing the MAC address makes sure you’re pairing
with the device you want (for example, the device in the room you’re setting up).
A device may pair automatically after connecting to the network. However, you may need to manually pair
a device in the following situations:
▪ The device doesn’t automatically pair during setup with the system you purchased.
▪ You want to pair the device with a different system.
▪ You want to pair multiple similar devices (for example, to control the system with more than one
Poly TC8 device).
Procedure
1. Connect the device you want to pair to an Ethernet port in the room.
2. In the system web interface, go to General Settings > Device Management.
3. Under Available Devices, find the device by its MAC address (for example, 00e0db4cf0be) and
select Pair.
If paired successfully, the device displays under Connected Devices with a Connected status. If
a device shows a Disconnected status, this indicates that pairing wasn’t successful.
