Integrating the Global Address Book (GAB) of Polycom

RealPresence Resource Manager (XMA) or Polycom

CMA™ with the Collaboration Server

The Polycom RealPresence Resource Manager (XMA) or Polycom CMA™ application
includes a Global Address Book (GAB) with all registered endpoints. This address book can
be used by the Collaboration Server users to add participants to conferences.
Guidelines for integrating with the Global Address Book of Polycom RealPresence
Resource Manager (XMA) or Polycom CMA™:
• The Collaboration Server can use only one address book at a time. After you integrate
the Polycom RealPresence Resource Manager (XMA) or Polycom CMA with the
Polycom Collaboration Server, the XMA/CMA address book replaces the Collaboration
Server internal address book.
• The Collaboration Server uses the RealPresence Resource Manager (XMA) or Polycom
CMA address book in read-only mode. You can only add or modify XMA/CMA
address book entries from the RealPresence Resource Manager (XMA) or Polycom
CMA.
To Integrate the RealPresence Resource Manager (XMA) or Polycom CMA Global
Address Book (GAB) with the Collaboration Server:
RealPresence Resource Manager (XMA) or Polycom CMA Side
1In the RealPresence Resource Manager (XMA) or Polycom CMA application, manually
add the Polycom Collaboration Server system to the RealPresence Resource Manager
(XMA) or Polycom CMA system as directed in the PRealPresence Resource Manager
(XMA) or Polycom CMA Operations Guide.
2In the RealPresence Resource Manager (XMA) or Polycom CMA application, add a user
or use an existing user for Collaboration Server login as directed in the RealPresence
Resource Manager (XMA) or Polycom CMA Operations Guide.
Write down the User Name and Password as they will be used later to define the
Collaboration Server connection to the RealPresence Resource Manager (XMA) or
Polycom CMA Global Address Book.
When importing an Address Book, participants with exact names in the current Address Book will be
overwritten by participants defined in the imported Address Book.
The Collaboration Server acts as a proxy to all address book requests between the Collaboration
Server Web Client and the XMA/CMA. Ensure that firewall and other network settings allow the
Collaboration Server access to the XMA or CMA server.
