Polycom RealPresence Collaboration Server (RMX) 1500/2000/4000 Administrator’s Guide

In addition, PSTN participants can dial the Gateway IVR and can use the MCU or DMA prefix in the gatekeeper together with the conference ID/endpoint alias as the destination string to simplify the input. This is one of the methods for PSTN participants to connect to a virtual Meeting Room on the DMA. For more details, see "PSTN Dial-in Using GK Prefix” on page 19-9.

Calling a DMA Direct with Automatically Generated Destination Dial Strings

In this configuration, the gateway session initiator enters one of the dial-in numbers assigned to the gateway profile. This number is truncated by the RMX gateway and the truncated digits are replaced by a prefix that corresponds either to the DMA prefix in the Gatekeeper.
