MCU Management

Field

Description

 

 

Management IP address

Host name or IP address for logging into the MCU (to use it as a conferencing

 

resource).

 

Note: Polycom MCUs don't include their management IP address in the

 

Subject Alternate Name (SAN) field of the CSR (Certificate Signing Request),

 

so their certificates identify them only by the Common Name (CN). Therefore

 

if Skip validation of certificates received while making outbound

 

connections is off (see Security Settings), the MCU's management interface

 

must be identified by the name specified in the CN field (usually the FQDN),

 

not by IP address.

 

 

Admin user ID

Administrative user ID with which the Polycom RealPresence DMA system

 

can log into the MCU.

 

For a maximum security environment, this must be a machine account

 

created on the MCU. Note that the RMX and RealPresence Collaboration

 

Server MCUs use case-sensitive machine names (and thus FQDNs) when

 

creating machine accounts.

 

 

Password

Password for the administrative user ID.

 

 

Video ports reserved for non-DMA

The number of video ports on this MCU that are off-limits to the Polycom

use

RealPresence DMA system.

 

Note: This feature is not for use with an integrated Polycom RealPresence

 

Resource Manager system. The RealPresence Resource Manager system

 

must have exclusive use of any MCUs on which it directly schedules

 

conferences. Those MCUs should not be added to the RealPresence DMA

 

system’s conferencing resources. A Polycom MCU can be managed by the

 

RealPresence Resource Manager system or the RealPresence DMA system,

 

not both.

 

 

Voice ports reserved for non-DMA

The number of voice ports on this MCU that are off-limits to the Polycom

use

RealPresence DMA system.

 

Note: This feature is not for use with an integrated Polycom RealPresence

 

Resource Manager system. The RealPresence Resource Manager system

 

must have exclusive use of any MCUs on which it directly schedules

 

conferences. Those MCUs should not be added to the RealPresence DMA

 

system’s conferencing resources. A Polycom MCU can be managed by the

 

RealPresence Resource Manager system or the RealPresence DMA system,

 

not both.

 

 

Cascade-for-size reserved video

The number of video ports on this MCU to reserve for cascade links when a

ports

conference that has cascade for size enabled (see Cascading for Size) is

 

created on this MCU.

 

 

Per-conference

For each cascade-for-size conference on this MCU, this number of video

 

ports is subtracted from the number of video ports available when the system

 

is determining which MCU has the most ports available.

 

 

Overall

The number of video ports reserved for cascade-for-size conferences on this

 

MCU (in addition to the Per-conferencevalue).

 

 

Strip prefix

If selected, the system strips the prefix when a call that includes a prefix is

 

routed to this MCU.
