Telepresence mode	Support for telepresence conference rooms joining the conference:
	• Auto (default) — A conference is automatically put into telepresence mode
	when a telepresence endpoint (RPX, TPX, ATX, or OTX) joins.
	• On— Telepresence mode is on, regardless of whether a telepresence
	endpoint is present.
	• Off— Telepresence mode is off, regardless of whether a telepresence
	endpoint is present.
	We recommend always using Auto. Available only on v6.0 and newer
	Polycom MCUs that are licensed for telepresence mode. For information on
	Polycom MCU licensing and activation, refer to the MCU’s Getting Started
	Guide.
	Note: The system flag ITP_CERTIFICATION must be set to YES. See the
	information about system flags in the MCU’s Administrator’s Guide.
Telepresence layout mode	Layout choices for telepresence conferences:
	• Manual — Layout is controlled manually by a conference operator using
	the Multipoint Layout Application (MLA) interface.
	• Continuous Presence — Tells the MLA to generate a multipoint view
	(standard or custom).
	• Room Switch — Tells the MLA to use Voice Activated Room Switching
	(VARS). The speaker’s site is the only one seen by others.
	• Speaker Priority — Ensures that the current speaker is always displayed in
	the video layout. The previous speakers are also displayed if there is room
	in the layout. In this mode, each endpoint in the conference reserves
	screens for displaying the active speaker in the largest video layout cell
	available.
	Not available if Telepresence mode is No. See the Polycom Multipoint
	Layout Application User Guide for more information about layouts.
