IVR Provider Entry Queue (Shared Number Dialing)

In an environment that includes a DMA, the RMX Entry Queue can be configured to provide the IVR Services on behalf of the DMA to SIP endpoints. It displays the Welcome Slide, plays the welcome message and retrieves the destination conference ID that is entered by the participant using DTMF codes.

To enable this feature, a special Entry Queue that is defined as IVR Service Provider only is created. This Entry Queue does not forward calls to conferences running on the RMX and its main functionality is to provide IVR services.

Call Flow

The SIP participant dials the DMA Virtual Entry Queue number, for example 1000@dma.polycom.com.

The DMA forwards the SIP call to the RMX, to a special Entry Queue that is configured as IVR Service Provider Only. The participant is prompted to enter the conference ID using DTMF codes.

Once the participant enters the conference ID, the conference ID is forwarded to the DMA, enabling the DMA to connect the SIP endpoint to the destination conference or create a new conference and connect the participant to that conference.

Guidelines

An Entry Queue defined as IVR service provider only does not route the SIP call to a target conference and it cannot be used to rout calls on the RMX. In such a configuration, the DMA handles the calls. Therefore, normal Entry Queues must be defined separately.
