Do I have to configure the RMS Enterprise connection from the controller's web interface?

No. Although, generally not recommended, it is possible to “hard code” this information with the following commands to the RMS virtual device (please see the RMS Netlinx Programmer Guide for additional details):

CONFIG.CLIENT.NAME
CONFIG.SERVER.URL
CONFIG.SERVER.PASSWORD
CONFIG.CLIENT.ENABLED

It's important to keep in mind that if the configuration is done in code it is permanent until you edit, re-compile, and re-send the code to each processor. So if you change the URL or password to your RMS server it is required that every processor that connects to RMS will need to be reprogrammed.
