MCU Management
Polycom, Inc. 128
The Actions list associated with the MCU list contains the items in the following table.
Registration Status The registration status of the device with the Call Server:
•Active — The device is registered and can make and receive calls.
•Inactive — The device’s registration has expired. Whether it can make and
receive calls depends on the system’s rogue call policy (see Call Server Settings
on page234). It can register again.
•Permanent — The device’s registration never expires.
•Quarantined — The device is registered, but it can’t make or receive calls until
you remove it from quarantine.
•Quarantined (Inactive) — The device was quarantined, and its registration has
expired. It can register again, returning to Quarantined status.
•Blocked — The device is not permitted to register. Whether it can make and
receive calls depends on the system’s rogue call policy. It remains blocked from
registering until you unblock it.
A device’s registration status can be determined by:
•An action by the device.
•An action applied to it manually on this page.
•The expiration of a timer.
•The application of a registration policy and admission policy (see Registration
Policy on page 264).
Exceptions Shows any exceptions with which the device was flagged as a result of applying a
registration policy.
