Site name

A meaningful name for the site (up to 128 characters).

 

Note: If the system’s embedded DNS service is enabled (see Embedded

 

DNS on page 274), the system uses the site name to create the Logical host

 

name (see Site Information Dialog Box on page 281). We strongly

 

recommend:

 

Using site names that contain only characters permitted in a host name

 

(letters, numbers, and internal hyphens).

 

Entering network/DNS-related information in all lower case to avoid

 

possible case-sensitivity issues with various devices and ensure

 

interoperability.

 

 

Description

A brief description of the site (up to 200 characters).

 

 

Bandwidth Settings

 

 

 

Max bandwidth (Mbps)

The total bandwidth limit for voice and video calls. If not selected, voice and

 

video calls can use all of the available bandwidth.

 

This setting lets you restrict voice and video calls to only a portion of the

 

available bandwidth, ensuring that some bandwidth always remains available

 

for other network traffic.

 

 

Max bit rate (kbps)

The per-call bit rate limit for voice and video calls.

 

Note: Bit rate is not the same as bandwidth. Since the bit rate applies in both

 

directions and there is overhead, the actual bandwidth consumed is about 2.5

 

times the bit rate selected.

 

When you specify both the bandwidth and bit rate limits, the dialog box shows

 

you how many calls at that bit rate the specified bandwidth limit supports.

 

 

Territory Settings

 

Territory

Assigns the site to a territory, and thus to a Polycom RealPresence DMA cluster.
