The LifeSize Gateway Administrator is a web interface that allows you to
configure general LifeSize Gateway unit settings, monitor LifeSize Gateway
unit operation, create or edit services and perform maintenance.
You access the LifeSize Gateway Administrator web interface in the LifeSize
Gateway unit access window by signing in as an Administrator.
You can use your web browser from any remote PC station to monitor and to
configure the LifeSize Gateway unit. A web server is installed in the LifeSize
Gateway unit
to facilitate the use of the remote web-based monitoring and
management.
Access to the LifeSize Gateway configuration interface is controlled by a user

upload them to the unit for them to take effect, or you can save them to a
configuration file to be loaded at a later time.
