Cisco Cisco TelePresence Video Communication Server Expressway Maintenance Manual
About the Cisco TelePresence Video Communication Server (VCS)
FindMe™
A unique industry solution that gives individual video users a single alias on which they can be
contacted regardless of location. Users have the ability to log on to a Web-based interface and control
where and how they are contacted. The FindMe feature also includes support for Microsoft Office
Communications Server (OCS) 2007, enabling FindMe aliases to register as Microsoft Office
Communicator (MOC) clients, and MOC clients to view the presence status of FindMe aliases.

Device Provisioning
The Device Provisioning option key allows VCS to provision endpoints with configuration information
on request and to supply endpoints with phone book information. (Endpoints including Movi v2.0 or
later, and E20 v2.1 or later can request to be provisioned.) All configuration and phone book
information is managed in TMS, and distributed to the clients through the TMS Agent running on the
VCS. The TMS Agent on the VCS also provides TMS with the provisioned client’s status.

There is no configuration associated with Device Provisioning on the VCS – it is either on or off,
depending on whether or not the option key is installed. See the TMS documentation and the
