DMA Operations Guide Conference Settings
194 Polycom, Inc.
To specify conference settings
1 Go to Admin > Conference Manager > Conference Settings.
2 On the Conference Settings page, make the appropriate selections.
Dialing prefix E.164 dial string prefix for calling the system.
If neighboring with a Polycom gatekeeper on which the
Simplified Dialing service is enabled and uses a prefix of
9 (the default), don’t use 90-99. The neighbor
gatekeeper recognizes the 9 as a known prefix and
ignores the second digit.
If a prefix is specified, it’s used for SIP calls as well so
that the same number can be dialed from both H.323
and SIP endpoints.
Caution: Changing the dialing prefix terminates any
existing H.323 calls. When you click Update, the system
prompts you to confirm.
Default max total
participants
Specifies the maximum conference size assigned to a
conference room if a larger or smaller maximum size
isn’t specified for it.
Automatic (the default setting) uses the largest
conference size supported by the MCU as the default
maximum.
Default conference
template
Default template used by the system. See “Conference
Templates” on page 195.
Default territory The territory assigned to a user’s conference room if it
isn’t specified at the user or conference room level.
A conference room’s territory assignment determines
which DMA cluster hosts the conference (the primary
cluster for the territory, or its backup cluster if
necessary). Up to three territories in a superclustered
system can host conference rooms.
Default MCU pool order Default MCU pool order used by the system. See “MCU
Pool Orders” on page 156.
Minimum and maximum
generated room ID
Specify the minimum and maximum values for
auto-generated room IDs created for custom conference
rooms. Values may be up to six digits long, and the
minimum must be less than the maximum.
The six-digit limit applies only to generated IDs for
custom conference rooms.
Conference Duration Default maximum duration of a conference (in hours and
minutes) or Unlimited (the maximum in this case
depends on the MCU).
