Install Appspace App on Cisco IEC
Important
On June 19, 2017, Cisco announced that it would no longer develop or support the Interactive Experience Client 4650 (IEC) device. Instead, Cisco partner Moderro would take over the management and support of the solution.
Customers who wish to experience the benefits of the next evolution of the Appspace App may use the Appspace Progressive Web App available via all browsers. However, please contact Moderro for information and support.
If purchasing devices from Cisco, please note that we support these new Cisco Collaboration Endpoints.
Warning
These instructions are no longer applicable.
This article provides the instructions to configure and register Cisco Interactive Experience Client (IEC) devices for Appspace.
Prerequisites
The device must meet the manufacturer’s minimum hardware and technical specifications, as well as the Appspace App’s minimum requirements. Please refer to Appspace App requirements.
Ensure the device has been licensed and registered with the Cisco Interactive Experience Manager (IEM).
Ensure the device has been installed with the latest firmware (v 2.3.4b or higher).
An active Appspace account, with sufficient Device IDs to register the device.
An active Internet connection.
It is recommended that the device clock is set to automatically retrieve time from a Network Time Protocol (NTP) server, with the correct time zone, in order for it to sync correctly with the Appspace server.
Note
Appspace cloud servers by default retrieve time from a NTP server. If an Appspace on-premises server is used, ensure the server time is automatically retrieved by a NTP server.
Please ensure your network is configured to allow Appspace whitelist URLs and the relevant network ports.
On your proxy server, whitelist the hostnames listed in the ‘How to set up networks with SSL content filters’ section in the following article: https://support.google.com/chrome/a/answer/3504942#sslinspection.
