Configuration Procedures
To configure Polycom VSX/HDX series video conferencing systems and V500/V700 video
calling systems, you must perform the following steps:
1. On SAT, enter display system-parameters customer-options and verify the
Maximum Video Capable Stations. This number is provided by the license file. The
Maximum Video Capable Stations is determined using the following criteria:
● .Each V500/V700 system is considered to be one station
● .Each single-point VSX system is considered to be one station
● Each VSX multipoint system can be three to five stations. Each system supports six
sites in a call, but this includes the caller, so only five stations need to be administered.
● Each HDX system can be three stations for Multipoint Plus Four (MP-4) and seven
stations for Multipoint Plus Eight (MP-8) for the HDX9004. The basic rule is that for
an N-way multipoint system, N-1 consecutive H.323 stations are required. So, for
example, a HDX9004 with an MP-8 license requires seven H.323 stations with
adjacent extensions, such as 71862 to 71868. The adjacent extensions and a circular
hunt-to-station configuration ensure that the next available extension is accessed with
multiple dial-ins..The HDX9002 only has "Multipoint Plus Four"(MP-4) as an option.

● Priority Video Calling : appropriate COS levels.
