MCU Management

4To set aside some of the MCU’s capacity for the Polycom CMA system’s use, set Video ports reserved for CMA system and Voice ports reserved for CMA system to the desired values (requires RMX v6.0 and above).

The ports reserved for the Polycom CMA system can be used by that system for scheduled conferences.

Note: MCUs and RealPresence Resource Manager Systems

This feature is not for use with a Polycom RealPresence Resource Manager system. The RealPresence Resource Manager system must have exclusive use of any MCUs on which it directly schedules conferences. Those MCUs should not be added to the RealPresence DMA system’s conferencing resources.

5To use a gateway-capable MCU as an ISDN gateway, select the Enable gateway profiles check box and, on the Gateway Profiles tab, specify a dial string delimiter and add one or more session profiles.

6Click OK.

The new MCU appears in the MCUs list. If the MCU is configured as a conferencing resource, it’s placed into service.

7If the MCU is configured as a conferencing resource, add it to the desired MCU pool(s). See MCU Pools on page 142.

The pool(s) to which the MCU belongs, and the pool order(s) to which a pool belongs, are used to determine which MCU is used for a conference. See MCU Pool Orders on page 145.
