Appendix H-Setting the MCU for Integration Into Microsoft Environment

Starting a Conferencing Call from the MOC

1In the Office Communicator application, enter the number to dial, for example, 113344. This number is composed of the MCU Prefix in the Gatekeeper (for example, 11) and the Meeting Room ID, as defined on the MCU (for example, 3344).

2Click Call, and then click Other.

The call is routed to the Meeting Room on the MCU, and the caller that initiated the call connects as the conference chairperson.

3The MOC User can then add video to the call, by selecting Add Video in the Office Communicator window.

Setting Simultaneous Numerical Dialing and Matched URI Routing

You can simultaneously set up an MCU for both numerical and Matched URI dialing. If you want to do this, follow these instructions:

1Set the MCU as a trusted service (MediationServer) and a voice gateway using the instructions in "Setting the Numerical Dialing Method” on page H-12.

2Set up a matching URI route to the MCU/DMA by right-clicking the OCS Pool, selecting Properties > Front End Properties > Routing Tab and follow the instructions in "Setting the Static Route for MCU in the OCS” on page H-9.

•When defining both routing methods, you cannot add an MCU as an Authorized Host using the Front End Properties > Host Authorization tab. There can only be one trusted service entry for the MCU even though there are two different routes to the MCU (i.e., Matched URI and numerical dialing). If the Matched URI routing method was previously defined and the MCU was set as trusted host, and you are adding the numerical dialing method, you have to remove the MCU from the Trusted Hosts list. For more details, see "Optional. Removing the MCU from the Host Authorization List” on page H-13.

•Only TLS connections to the MCU will work, TCP connections will not work.
