To configure signaling, follow the procedure in “Configure Signaling” on page 83.

Configure the Call Server and Optionally Create a Supercluster

Configuring the Polycom DMA system’s Call Server function consists of the following high-level tasks:

1Integrate with a Polycom RealPresence Resource Manager or CMA system (see “Resource Management System Integration” on page 185) or enter site topology information (see “Site Topology” on page 283).

2If deploying a supercluster of multiple geographically distributed Polycom DMA clusters:

a Set the Security Configuration page security options before superclustering (see “Security Settings” on page 48). But wait until after superclustering to do the rest of the security setup tasks.

b Depending on security settings, you may need to install certificates before superclustering (see “Certificate Procedures” on page 42).

c Create a supercluster (see “About Superclustering” on page 227) and configure supercluster options.

3Create territories and assign sites to them (if you integrated with a Polycom RealPresence Resource Manager or CMA system, this must be done on that system). Assign the primary and backup cluster responsible for each territory, and designate which territories can host conference rooms (see “Territories” on page 302).

4Add any external devices, such as a neighbor gatekeeper or SIP peer (see “Call Server Configuration” on page 237).

5Configure the dial plan (see “Dial Rules” on page 243).

Set Up Security

The first step in securing your Polycom DMA system is to locate it in a secure data center with controlled access, but that topic is beyond the scope of this document.

Secure setup of the Polycom DMA system consists of the following high-level tasks (some of which assume you’re integrating with Active Directory and some of which overlap with other initial setup topics):
