Network Device List in the Monitor View
By default, the Network Device list in the Monitor View displays a list of
network devices the CMA system monitors, including those devices that
registered automatically with the CMA system and those devices that were
added manually for management and monitoring purposes.
The Network Device list in the Monitor View includes MCUs and Polycom
DMA nodes. It does not include Polycom VBP devices.
The Network Device list in the Monitor View displays MCUs as two separate
Device Types, the MCU type and a GW/MCU device. If automatic registration
is allowed, individual H.323 cards and/or IP blades in Polycom MCUs are
assigned the device type of GW/MCU during registration. This device type
represents the cards’ network interface. If automatic registration is not
allowed, you must add a GW/MCU device record for each H.323 card and IP
blade.
