Description

 

 

Publish presence for Polycom

Check this box to make presence status visible for each conference contact in

conference contacts

the Lync 2013 contact window.

 

Note: This check box affects the option Default Polycom conference

 

contacts presence settings below.

 

 

Lync pool to create / publish to

A list of Microsoft SIP peer pools to which the RealPresence DMA system can

 

publish presence. Select the pool whose clients should see conference

 

contact presence indications.

 

A Lync pool will appear in the list if:

 

It is defined as an External SIP Peer with type of Microsoft.

 

The field Maximum Polycom conference contacts to publish in the

 

External SIP Peer Lync Integration tab is set to a value greater than zero.

 

 

Contact SIP domain

The domain portion of the SIP URI that the RealPresence DMA system

 

creates for a contact (for example, sipdomain.net). The conference contacts

 

will be created in this domain. If the domain doesn’t exist, it will be created if

 

the Create Polycom conference contacts check box is enabled.

 

Note: If there are multiple superclusters that are integrated with a Microsoft®

 

Lync 2013 environment, be aware that this field should be different for each

 

supercluster. If this value is the same across multiple superclusters and the

 

systems are integrated with the same Active Directory, settings changes on

 

one supercluster could affect other superclusters. When you enable the

 

Presence Publishing check box on this page and click the Update button to

 

save the changes, a dialog may appear warning you of this situation.

 

 

Create Polycom conference

Only available if Microsoft Active Directory integration is enabled.

contacts

When checked, the RealPresence DMA system will create Active Directory

 

resources for any meeting rooms that have the Presence option enabled.

 

Note: Once you enable this option and update the page, all existing

 

conference contacts (VMRs) that do not have the Presence option explicitly

 

disabled will have an Active Directory contact resource created for

 

interoperability with Lync 2013. In other words, if you have not changed the

 

Presence option manually for any VMRs, all VMRs will have corresponding

 

Active Directory contacts created.

 

 

VMR display name pattern

The text pattern that describes the name of the VMR contact. This text will

 

precede the VMR number when displayed in the Lync contact window (for

 

example, a VMR display name pattern of “Conference room” would create

 

display names of “Conference room <VMR number>”). The maximum pattern

 

length is 63 characters.

 

After you edit this field, it may take some time for the change to be seen in the

 

Lync client, depending on how many conference contacts the RealPresence

 

DMA system is managing.

 

Note: This field is enabled when the Create Polycom conference contacts

 

check box is checked.
