130 Polycom, Inc.
Voice ports reserved for 
CMA system 
The number of voice ports on this MCU that are 
off-limits to the Polycom DMA system. 
Set this to the number of ports you want to reserve for 
your Polycom CMA system to use for scheduled 
conferences (requires RMX v6.0 or later). 
Note: This feature is not for use with a Polycom 
RealPresence Resource Manager system. The 
RealPresence Resource Manager system must have 
exclusive use of any MCUs on which it directly 
schedules conferences. Those MCUs should not be 
added to the DMA system’s conferencing resources. 
Strip prefix  If selected, the system strips the prefix when a call that 
includes a prefix is routed to this MCU. 
Direct dial in prefix  The dialing prefix assigned to the MCU, if any. MCUs 
without a prefix are unavailable for direct prefix-based 
dialing. 
MCUs don’t need a prefix to be used as conferencing 
resources by the Conference Manager. 
Signaling address for 
H.323 
The address that the MCU uses for H.323 signaling. If 
you specify the login information for the MCU, this field 
is optional (the system can get the address from the 
MCU). If not, and H.323 is enabled, this field is required. 
Signaling address for 
SIP 
The address that the MCU uses for SIP signaling. If you 
specify the login information for the MCU, this field is 
optional (the system can get the address from the 
MCU). If not, and SIP is enabled, this field is required. 
Transport type  The SIP transport type to use with this MCU. If the 
Polycom DMA system‘s security settings don’t allow 
unencrypted connections, this must be TLS. 
Signaling type  Select SIP, H.323, or both, depending on the 
configuration of the Polycom DMA system and the 
MCU. 
Enable for conference 
rooms 
Makes the MCU available as a conferencing resource 
for the Polycom DMA system’s Conference Manager. 
Up to 64 MCUs can be enabled for conference rooms. 
Caution: Before adding an MCU to the DMA system’s 
conferencing resources, make sure that MCU isn’t 
already a RealPresence Resource Manager system 
conferencing resource. The RealPresence Resource 
Manager system must have exclusive use of any MCUs 
on which it directly schedules conferences.
