Polycom 7000 manual Site Links, Column Description

Site Topology

Field	Description
Max total bandwidth (Mbps)	The total bandwidth limit for voice and video calls. If not specified, the site limit
	applies.
Max per-call bit rate (kbps)	The per-call bit rate limit for voice and video calls. If not specified, the site limit
	applies.
	When you specify both the bandwidth and bit rate limits, the dialog shows you
	how many calls at that bit rate the specified bandwidth supports. The value of
	the Bit rate to bandwidth conversion factor setting on the Call Server
	Settings page is used in this calculation.

Site Topology Configuration Procedures

Site Links

The Site Links page contains a list of the links defined in the site topology. A link can connect two sites, or it can connect a site to an MPLS network cloud (see Network Clouds). Links between sites must be configured in order to enable calls between sites. In order for an endpoint in site A to call an endpoint in site B, there must be a link path (either direct, via other linked sites, or via an MPLS network cloud) connecting site A and site B.

An initial site link is provided with a freshly installed system, named Default Site to Internet/VPN. It links the Default site with the Internet/VPN site to allow call routing for a newly deployed system.

If the system is integrated with a RealPresence Resource Manager system, it receives this information from that system, and this page is read-only. If not, you can enter link information.

The commands in the Actions list let you add a link and edit or delete existing links. The next table describes the fields in the list.

	creating a site-to-cloud link.
Max Total Bandwidth (Mbps)	The total bandwidth limit for voice and video calls, which you set at the
	gateway or router.
Max Per-Call Bit Rate (kbps)	The per-call bit rate limit for voice and video calls, which you set at the
