Polycom RealPresence Resource Manager System Operations Guide Using a Polycom DMA System with RealPresence
310 Polycom, Inc.
— Provides complete endpoint registration and call routing services for
both H.323 and SIP protocols. It also serves as a gateway between
H.323 and SIP, enabling enterprises with legacy H.323 devices to
transition to SIP in a gradual, orderly, and cost-effective manner.
— Provides bandwidth management, and can be integrated with a
Juniper Networks Session and Resource Control Module (SRC) to
provide bandwidth assurance services.
— Comes with a default dial plan that covers many common scenarios,
but which can easily be modified.
The Call Server makes it possible for multiple UC environments and different
video conferencing technologies to be unified across the network into a single
dial plan.
See the Polycom DMA 7000 System Operations Guide for more information.
This section includes the following topics that discuss some of the
considerations when integrating a DMA system with your RealPresence
Resource Manager system.

SIP Endpoint Management
For SIP-only endpoints that register with the DMA system and do not register
with the RealPresence Resource Manager system’s provisioning service, you
must manually add them to the RealPresence Resource Manager system in
order to manage that endpoint.
H.323 endpoints that register with the DMA system’s gatekeeper
automatically display in a RealPresence Resource Manager system that has
been configured with a DMA system.
MCU Management
• When your system integrates with a Polycom DMA system, make sure the
names of MCU systems that are managed by the RealPresence Resource
Manager system includes a qualifier that indicates to the DMA system
administrator that the MCU is directly registered to the RealPresence
Resource Manager system; for example,
ResourceManager_RMX10
.
• An RMX system can be managed by the RealPresence Resource Manager
system or the Polycom DMA system, not both.
