Polycom 3725-77601-001H manual MCU View, DMA View

Network Device Management Overview

Field	Description
Subscriber-side IP	The public network IP address for the Polycom VBP
	device.

MCU View

Use the MCU View to manage Polycom MCU conferencing platforms on the network.

The MCU list has the same fields as the Network Device > Monitor view. For more information, see “Monitor View” on page 222.

DMA View

The Polycom® Distributed Media Application (DMA) system is a multipoint conferencing manager that uses advanced routing policies to distribute voice and video calls among multiple media servers (Multipoint Control Units, or MCUs), creating a single virtual resource pool. This greatly simplifies video conferencing resource management and uses MCU resources more efficiently.

Use the DMA View to manage DMA systems v2.3 or earlier. These earlier versions of the DMA system register with the CMA system as a Gateway/MCU and can be displayed in the DMA list.

The DMA list has the following information.

Field	Description
Name	A unique name for the DMA system.
Virtual IP Address	The virtual IP address for the DMA system.
Dial Prefix	E.164 dial string prefix for calling the system. Must be
	unique among the gatekeeper’s devices and services.
	For more information, see the Polycom DMA 7000
	System Operations Guide.
Description	A useful description for the DMA system.

IMPORTANT

Newer versions of the DMA system (v3.0 or greater) include call server functionality (H.323 gatekeeper and SIP proxy/registrar). For that reason, these DMA systems do not register with the CMA system as a Gateway/MCU and should not be added to the CMA system as a network device. Instead, these DMA system should be added to the CMA system as a trusted neighbor.
