Polycom CMA System Setup Overview

Devices register with the system designated as the default gatekeeper, unless that gatekeeper is down. Then devices register with the system designated as the alternate gatekeeper.

When registering, devices send a variety of settings to the gatekeeper including their IP address, one or more H.323 IDs, and one or more E.164 aliases. These settings appear in the CMA system as Device Details.

When devices in dynamic management mode are automatically provisioned by the CMA system.

And devices can be registered to the CMA system manually:

At the device by specifying the IP address of the CMA system as the gatekeeper.

At the device by specifying the IP address of the CMA system as the Global Directory Service. Once the device in the CMA system Global Address Book it is registered to the system.

At the CMA system by adding the device to the one of the device lists (Endpoint, MCU, VBP, or DMA lists).

Once an endpoint is registered, users of other registered endpoints can call the endpoint by using either the H.323 ID, a URI, an E.164 alias, or one of the services.

Allow Registration of Predefined Endpoints Only

The restrictive Allow Registration of Predefined Endpoints Only registration policy allows devices to automatically register once they are added to the CMA system either when they are automatically provisioned, automatically registered to the Global Address Book, or added to the system manually.

Allow Registration of Endpoints in Defined Sites

The moderately open Allow Registration of Endpoints in Defined Sites registration policy allows endpoints to automatically register if they are within one of the Dial Plan sites defined to the CMA system, when they are automatically provisioned, when they are automatically registered to the Global Address Book, or when they are added to the system manually

Allow Registration of Predefined Prefixes Only

With this controlled registration policy, devices within a range of defined

E.164 prefixes may automatically register with the CMA system.
