protocols used by the participant’s endpoint. By utilizing the Address Book you can quickly and efficiently
assign or designate participants to conferences. Groups defined in the Address Book help facilitate the
creation of conferences. Participants can be added to the Address Book individually or in Groups.

Importing and exporting of Address Books enables organizations to seamlessly distribute up-to-date
Address Books to multiple Collaboration Server units. It is not possible to distribute Address Books to
external databases running on applications such as the RealPresence Resource Manager or Polycom
CMA. External databases can run in conjunction with Collaboration Server units, but must be managed from
the external application. For example, new participants cannot be added to the external database from the
Collaboration Server Web Client. To enable the Collaboration Server to run with an external database such
as Polycom RealPresence Resource Manager or Polycom CMA, the appropriate system configuration
flags must be set.
