Polycom 7000 manual Field Description, Conference Templates

Users and Groups

Note: Enterprise vs. local users

You must be an enterprise user (with the appropriate user role assignments) to see and work with enterprise users. A local user can only see other local users, regardless of user roles.

Microsoft Active Directory provides two group types and four group scopes. The Polycom RealPresence DMA system supports only security groups (not distribution groups) with universal or global scope.

The Groups page provides access to information about enterprise groups. From it, you can:

●Import enterprise groups.

●Specify Polycom RealPresence DMA system roles to be assigned to members of a group.

●Specify a conference template and MCU pool order to be used for a group.

The following table describes the fields on the Groups page.

Field	Description
Group Name	Name of the group, as defined in the Active Directory.
Description	Description from the Active Directory.
Domain	Name of the domain to which the group belongs.
Class of service	Class of service assigned to the group, which determines the priority of the
	group’s calls.
	If none, the group receives the system’s default class of service. See
	Conference Settings.
	Note: A class of service may also be assigned to a user (see Users) or an
	endpoint (see Endpoints).
	Note: The class of service of the device applies to point to point calls. VMR
	calls use the class of service of the conference room.
Conference Template	Template assigned to the group, if any, which defines the conference
	properties (or links to the Polycom MCU profile) used for its conferences. See
	Conference Templates.
	The template assignment can be made at the conference room, AD group, or
	system default level.
MCU Pool Order	MCU pool order assigned to this group, if any, which is used to determine
	which MCU hosts a conference. See MCU Pool Orders.
	The pool order assignment can be made at the conference room, AD group,
	or system default level.
Territory	Territory to which the group’s conference rooms (virtual meeting rooms, or
	VMRs) are assigned.
	A conference room’s territory assignment determines which RealPresence
	DMA cluster hosts the conference (the primary cluster for the territory, or its
	backup cluster if necessary). The assignment can be made at the conference
	room level, the user level, the AD group level, or the system default level.
Assigned Roles	RealPresence DMA system roles, if any, that are automatically assigned to
	members of this group (all users automatically have the Conferencing User
	role; it’s not listed or explicitly assigned). See User Roles Overview.
