Provision Endpoints with SIP Server Settings Dynamic Provisioning of Endpoints for SIP Server Integration
Polycom, Inc. 275
The RealPresence Resource Manager system supports SIP to establish
conference connections. If you want to use SIP, you must enable it and
configure SIP settings. You must also upload SIP URI data.
To provision endpoints with the information required to integrate with these
SIP servers, you must complete the following tasks:
• “Creating Authentication Information for SIP Endpoints” on page 275
• “Import SIP URI Data” on page 275
• “Provision SIP Settings for SIP Server Integration” on page 276
Creating Authentication Information for SIP Endpoints
To have the RealPresence Resource Manager system dynamically provision a
Polycom endpoint for SIP integration, the endpoint must use the same
credentials (username and password) to access both the SIP server and the
RealPresence Resource Manager system. Only then can the RealPresence
Resource Manager system provision SIP settings.
If the SIP server uses a third-party database for authentication that the
RealPresence Resource Manager system is not aware of, you need to import
both the user information and SIP URI information from the SIP server.
1 Create a RealPresence Resource Manager system local user account for
the endpoint that matches the username and password. To save time, you
can import the users that you need, see “Import Users” on page 350.
2 Associate those users with endpoints, see “Associate a User with an
Endpoint” on page 108.
3 Import SIP URI data for those users, see “Import SIP URI Data” on
page 275
Import SIP URI Data
After you enable and configure SIP, you must import your endpoint SIP URI
information from your SIP server. The SIP URI is used as the endpoint’s
address.
1 Create a CSV file in the format described here. The import requires a CSV
file in the following format:
domain,username,deviceType,URI
where:
If you are using Microsoft as your SIP server, you do not need to import SIP URI
data. The RealPresence Resource Manager system can retrieve the SIP URI
from the enterprise directory.
