To configure signaling, follow the procedure in “Configure Signaling” on
page 83.
Configure the Call Server and Optionally Create a
Supercluster
Configuring the Polycom DMA system’s Call Server function consists of the
following high-level tasks:
1 Integrate with a Polycom RealPresence Resource Manager or CMA
system (see “Resource Management System Integration” on page 185) or
enter site topology information (see “Site Topology” on page 283).
2 If deploying a supercluster of multiple geographically distributed
Polycom DMA clusters:
a Set the Security Configuration page security options before
superclustering (see “Security Settings” on page 48). But wait until
after superclustering to do the rest of the security setup tasks.
b Depending on security settings, you may need to install certificates
before superclustering (see “Certificate Procedures” on page 42).
c Create a supercluster (see “About Superclustering” on page 227) and
configure supercluster options.
3 Create territories and assign sites to them (if you integrated with a
Polycom RealPresence Resource Manager or CMA system, this must be
done on that system). Assign the primary and backup cluster responsible
for each territory, and designate which territories can host conference
rooms (see “Territories” on page 302).
4 Add any external devices, such as a neighbor gatekeeper or SIP peer (see
“Call Server Configuration” on page 237).
5 Configure the dial plan (see “Dial Rules” on page 243).
Set Up Security
The first step in securing your Polycom DMA system is to locate it in a secure
data center with controlled access, but that topic is beyond the scope of this
document.
Secure setup of the Polycom DMA system consists of the following high-level
tasks (some of which assume you’re integrating with Active Directory and
some of which overlap with other initial setup topics):
