Edit Conference Template Dialog Box

Lets you edit a conference template. The following table describes the fields in the dialog box. The Common Settings section applies to all MCUs. The Cisco Codian section appears only if the system is licensed to use Cisco Codian MCUs, and its settings apply only if a Codian MCU is selected for the call. The other sections apply only if a Polycom RealPresence Collaboration Server or RMX MCU is selected.

See Two Types of Templates on page 190.

 

 

Use existing profile

Links this template to the RMX profile selected in the list below.

 

For most purposes, we recommend leaving this box unchecked and

 

specifying conference properties directly. See Conference Templates on

 

page 190.

 

 

RMX profile name

Identifies the profile to which this template is linked. The list contains the

 

names of all the profiles available on the currently connected MCUs. If a

 

profile is only available on some of the connected MCUs, its entry shows how

 

many of the MCUs have that profile (for instance, 2 of 3).

 

The system will put conferences using this template on the least used MCU

 

that has this profile. If there are none, it selects the least-used MCU and either

 

uses the Codian-specific settings (if it selected a Cisco Codian MCU) or falls

 

back to the default conference template (if it selected a Polycom MCU).
