Site Topology

Field	Description
Logical host name	If the system’s embedded DNS service is enabled (see Embedded DNS), this
	is the logical FQDN that endpoints in this site should register to.
	The system generates this by combining “callserver,” the site name, and the
	value specified in the Call server sub-domain controlled by RealPresence
	DMA field on the Embedded DNS page.
	If the site name contains a character not permitted in a host name, the system
	replaces it with a dash (hyphen) followed by the hex code of the ASCII
	character. For instance, if the site is named “paris (north)” and the call server
	sub-domain is “callservers.example.com,” the logical host name would be:
	callserver-paris-20-28north-29.callservers.example.com

Add Site Dialog

Lets you define a new site in the Polycom RealPresence DMA system’s site topology and specify which subnets are associated with it. The following table describes the fields in the dialog.

Field	Description
General Info
General Settings
Site name	A meaningful name for the site (up to 128 characters).
	Note: If the system’s embedded DNS service is enabled (see Embedded
	DNS), the system uses the site name to create the Logical host name (see
	Site Information Dialog). We strongly recommend:
	• Using site names that contain only characters permitted in a host name
	(letters, numbers, and internal hyphens).
	• Entering network/DNS-related information in all lower case to avoid
	possible case-sensitivity issues with various devices and ensure
	interoperability.
Description	A brief description of the site (up to 200 characters).
