Chapter 1 Using CTMS Administration Software

User Interface

Administrative Roles

CTMS administration software recognizes three different administrative roles; access to task folders is dependent on defined administrative roles.

Administrators: Administrators have the authority to perform all tasks associated with CTMS, including configuring system settings, managing multipoint meetings, maintaining, monitoring and troubleshooting CTMS. Administrators have access to all folders in CTMS Administration software.

Meeting Scheduler: Meeting Schedulers have the authority to perform multipoint meeting management tasks, such as defining meeting templates, and setting up (and breaking down, as necessary) ad hoc, static and scheduled meetings. Meeting Schedulers have access to the Meeting Management folder in CTMS Administration software.

Diagnostic Technicians: Diagnostic Technicians have the authority to perform CTMS monitoring and troubleshooting tasks. Diagnostic Technicians have access to the Troubleshooting and Monitoring folders in CTMS Administration software.

Administrative role configuration is described in “Chapter 4: Configuring CTMS Administration Software.”

User Interface

CTMS Administration software user interface is similar to the interface used in Cisco TelePresence System Administration software and Cisco TelePresence Manager software. The user interface is organized as follows:
