Cisco Cisco TelePresence Management Suite (TMS) Version 15

Introduction

Cisco TMS Provisioning Extension (Cisco TMSPE) is an application for Cisco TMS that offers the following features for
telepresence users and administrators:

■

Large-scale provisioning of telepresence users through Cisco TelePresence Video Communication Server
(Cisco VCS).

■

FindMe, a user-configurable, Cisco VCS-based telepresence call forwarding feature.

■

Smart Scheduler, a web-based telepresence scheduling tool for end users.

■

Collaboration Meeting Rooms, permanent personal telepresence virtual spaces that also support WebEx.

Cisco TMSPE provides both administrator configuration and end-user interfaces for these features. End users can
access their personal provisioning settings, FindMe, Collaboration Meeting Room and Smart Scheduler in a common
portal.

Note that Smart Scheduler and Collaboration Meeting Room are also available for deployments with Unified CM rather
than Cisco VCS. For guidance, see

Cisco TMSPE with Unified CM Deployment Guide.
