Endpoint Management Overview

The CMA system software update feature, which requires a software update 

profile for the endpoint type and model, allows an administrator to upgrade 

the software on one or more endpoints with a standard software package. This 

eliminates the need to upgrade each endpoint individually. 
The CMA system supports two exclusive software update processes: 

automatic and scheduled. Automatic and scheduled software update are 

exclusive endpoint management scenarios. Endpoints enabled for automatic 

software update should not be scheduled for software updates through the 

system. 

For more information, see:
•

Automatic software update, which controls the endpoint’s software version 

level, is tied to the endpoint type. Currently, the automatic software update 

feature is only available for these endpoint types.

• Polycom RealPresence Group Series
• Polycom CMA Desktop systems

In dynamic management mode, when a endpoint starts up and at designated 

intervals thereafter, it automatically polls the CMA system for a newer 

software update package. If a software update is necessary, the package is sent 

in XML format over a secure HTTPS connection.
Endpoints do not poll for software update packages if they are in a call. They 

restart polling after the call ends.

Automatic software update is enabled at the endpoint, but the CMA system 

must have an automatic software update profile for the endpoint type to fulfill 

the process. A default automatic software update profile—with the 

Polycom recommends that all endpoints in a region (that is, a gatekeeper zone) be 
managed by a single management system.
