Appendix H-Setting the RMX for Integration Into Microsoft OCS Environment

For a detailed description of the configuration of the Polycom 

conferencing entities for the integration in Microsoft Office 

Communications Server 2007 see Polycom® HDX and RMX™ Systems 

To be able to work with the OCS, the RMX unit must be configured as a 

Trusted Host in the OCS. This is done by defining the IP address of the 

signaling host of each RMX unit as Trusted Host.
Meeting Rooms are usually not registered to the OCS, and Static Routes 

are used instead. Setting Static Routes in the OCS enables SIP entities / 

UAs to connect to conferences without explicit registration of conferences 

with the OCS. 
Routing is performed by the OCS based on the comparison between the 

received URI and the provisioned static route pattern. If a match is found, 

the request is forwarded to the next hop according to the defined hop’s 

address. 
This is the recommended working method. It alleviates the need to create 

a user account in the OCS for each Meeting Room and Entry Queue. This 

also allows users to join ongoing conferences hosted on the MCU without 

registering all these conferences with OCS. 
Entry Queues can also be for Ad-hoc conferencing enabling Office 

Communicator clients to dial to the Entry Queue and create a new 

ongoing conference using DTMF codes to enter the target conference ID. 

In such a case, other OC users will have to use that ID to join the newly 

created conference. 
To set the RMX as trusted and define Static Routes in OCS:
1

Open the OCS Management application.
