Polycom CMA System Release Notes

Version 5.3

Scheduled Provisioning of Selected TANDBERG Endpoints

The Polycom CMA system version 5.3 can provision most fields for

TANDBERG 150, 990, 880, and 770 MXP endpoints. See the Polycom CMA

System Operations Guide for the list of provisionable fields for supported

TANDBERG endpoints.

Note that when you upgrade to Polycom CMA system v5.3, your existing

provisioning profiles for TANDBERG endpoints will be automatically

updated to the TANDBERG 990, 880, and 770 MXP provisioning profile

structure. However, because the profile structure has dramatically changed,

we recommend that you delete your existing TANDBERG provisioning

profiles and create new profiles.

See the appropriate TANDBERG product documentation for more

information about these fields and their acceptable values. See the Polycom

CMA System Operations Guide for information on implementing scheduled

provisioning of endpoints.

Command and Control

Polycom CMA system version 5.3 adds additional command and control for

TANDBERG 150, 990, 880, and 770 MXP endpoints. The Polycom CMA system

can send a Reboot command, and the endpoint can receive and act on the

command. In addition, the Polycom CMA system can:

• Discover the endpoint by searching for it within a range of IP addresses

• Complete the initial configuration of the endpoint

• Schedule and launch point-to-point conferences on the endpoint

Monitoring

Polycom CMA system version 5.3 can monitor TANDBERG150, 990, 880, and

770 MXP endpoints so when properly configured, the Polycom CMA system

can provide online/offline status and alerts, display call status, and provide

image support including near and far end images.

a. Dynamic Management and Standard Management are mutually exclusive functionality.

b. Scheduling (Dial In Only) and Scheduling (Dial In and Dial Out) are presented as mutually exclusive functionality.

c. Standard CMA monitoring does not involve using SNMP. It includes endpoint monitoring (online/offline status) and

alerts.

d. Command and Control means the Polycom CMA system can send a Reboot command, and the endpoint can receive

and act on the command.

e. Reports for IP Calls are generated as part of standard gatekeeper functionality. Reports for ISDN Calls are additional

system functionality.
