Site Links Site Topology
Polycom, Inc. 299
The Site Links page contains a list of the links defined in the site topology. A
link can connect two sites, or it can connect a site to an MPLS network cloud
(see “Network Clouds” on page305). Links between sites must be configured
in order to enable calls between si tes. In order for an endpoint in si te A to call
an endpoint in site B, there must be a link path (either direct, via other linked
sites, or via an MPLS network cloud) connecting site A and site B.
If the system is integrated with a Polycom RealPresence Resource Manager or
CMA system, it receives this information from that system, and this page is
read-only. If not, you can enter link information.
The commands in the Actions list let you add a link and edit or delete existing
links.
The following table describes the fields in the list.
