Conference Templates

 

 

If a conference with encryption enabled is forced to land on an MCU that doesn’t support encryption, that property is ignored.

To preferentially route conferences to certain MCUs, use MCU pool orders.

See “MCU Pools” on page 152 and “MCU Pool Orders” on page 156.

Templates Linked to RMX Profiles

Linking a template to an RMX profile lets you access profile properties that aren’t currently available in a standalone template.

Note

You can also use a template linked to an RMX profile to preferentially route conferences to RMX MCUs that have the profile. But we recommend that you create MCU pools and pool orders for this purpose instead of using profiles. See “MCU Pools” on page 152 and “MCU Pool Orders” on page 156.

When you link a template to a profile, it’s up to you to ensure that the profile exists on the MCUs you want to use with that template and that its settings are the same on all of them.

When it uses a profile-based template, the system first tries to find an MCU that has that profile (but it does so within the MCU pool order rules; see “MCU Pools” on page 152 and “MCU Pool Orders” on page 156). It selects the least used MCU in the pool that has that profile.

If none of the MCUs in the pool have that profile, the system selects the least used MCU in the pool and does one of the following:

If the system selected a Cisco Codian MCU, it uses the Codian-specific settings of the specified template.

If the system selected a Polycom RMX MCU, it falls back to its default conference template (see “Conference Settings” on page 193). If the default template happens to be linked to a profile that this MCU doesn’t have, the system falls back to its built-in conference properties settings.
