Polycom CMA System Operations Guide

Automatic Registration Synchronization

You can configure the CMA system to send registration server addressing information for the gatekeeper and/or global directory server (GDS) when the endpoint is registered to the CMA system.

Note

For the CMA system, the GDS is the same as the global address book (GAB).

This automatic registration synchronization service only works for endpoints that register with the gatekeeper or GDS or are manually added to the CMA system after the Automatic Registration Synchronization setting is enabled.

So if the Automatic Registration Synchronization setting is enabled and an endpoint registers with the gatekeeper, the gatekeeper addressing information is sent to the endpoint. If the Automatic Registration Synchronization setting is enabled and an endpoint registers with the GDS, the GDS addressing information is sent to the endpoint. If the Automatic Registration Synchronization setting is enabled and an endpoint is added manually to the CMA system, both the gatekeeper and GDS addressing information is sent to the endpoint.

If automatic discovery and configuration is not successful, you can manually add endpoints.

Notes

Automatic Registration Synchronization works only for endpoints that register with the gatekeeper or Global Directory Server after the setting is enabled; it does not automatically register pre-existing endpoints.

The CMA system only supports Automatic Registration Synchronization for Polycom and selected third-party endpoints operating in standard mode. For supported endpoint types, including third-party endpoint types, see “Endpoint Types” on page 87.

To enable Automatic Registration Synchronization of endpoints

1Go to Admin > Management and Security Settings > Endpoint Management Settings.

2In the Automatic Registration Synchronization section of the Endpoint Management Settings page, select Synchronize endpoint registration and click Update.

After you have changed this setting, all endpoints you add are automatically provisioned.
