Field

 

Description

 

 

Signaling address for

The address that the MCU uses for SIP signaling. If you

SIP

 

specify the login information for the MCU, this field is

 

 

optional (the system can get the address from the

 

 

MCU). If not, and SIP is enabled, this field is required.

 

 

Transport type

The SIP transport type to use with this MCU. If the

 

 

Polycom DMA system‘s security settings don’t allow

 

 

unencrypted connections, this must be TLS.

 

 

Signaling type

Select SIP, H.323, or both, depending on the

 

 

configuration of the Polycom DMA system and the

 

 

MCU.

 

 

Enable for conference

Makes the MCU available as a conferencing resource

rooms

 

for the Polycom DMA system’s Conference Manager.

 

 

Up to 64 MCUs can be enabled for conference rooms.

 

 

Caution: Before adding an MCU to the DMA system’s

 

 

conferencing resources, make sure that MCU isn’t

 

 

already a RealPresence Resource Manager system

 

 

conferencing resource. The RealPresence Resource

 

 

Manager system must have exclusive use of any MCUs

 

 

on which it directly schedules conferences.

 

 

Enable gateway profiles

Makes the MCU available for selection as an ISDN

 

 

gateway device and enables the Gateway Profiles tab

 

 

for configuring gateway session profiles.

 

 

Gateway session profiles indicate to the MCU the

 

 

bandwidth parameters to be used for the ISDN

 

 

connection. They can be used for:

 

 

ISDN gateway calls to the MCU’s direct dial-in

 

 

prefix. In this case, the caller specifies the session

 

 

profile prefix in the dial string:

 

 

<direct dial-in prefix><session profile

 

 

prefix><delimiter><E.164 number>

 

 

Calls to simplified ISDN gateway dialing prefixes

 

 

(see “Add Simplified ISDN Gateway Dialing Prefix

 

 

Dialog Box” on page 277). In this case, the DMA

 

 

system selects the MCU/gateway and its session

 

 

profile. See “ISDN Gateway Selection Process” on

 

 

page 147.

 

 

Class of service

Select to specify the default class of service and the bit

 

 

rate limits for this MCU.

 

 

If specified, calls to the MCU use its class of service or

 

 

the calling endpoint’s, whichever is better.

 

 

Maximum bit rate (kbps)

Select the maximum bit rate for calls to this MCU.
