Polycom CMA System Operations Guide 

252

Polycom, Inc.

The CMA system is a role and permissions based system. 
• Users are assigned one or more user roles either directly or through their 

group associations.

• User roles are assigned a set of permissions.
• Users see only the pages and functions available to their roles and 

associated permissions. Permissions are cumulative, so users see all of the 

pages and functions assigned to all of their roles and associated 

permissions.

• If your company has implemented the Areas feature, users only see 

endpoints assigned to their areas.

An administrator has several options when implementing user roles.

Implement only the default user roles and keep the standard permissions 

assigned to these roles.

Implement only the default user roles but change the permissions 

assigned to these roles. 

Implement either option 1 or 2, but also create additional unique, 

workflow-driven user roles and determine which permissions to assign 

to those user roles.

While the CMA system allows businesses almost unlimited flexibility in 

defining roles, for simplicity and clarity, we recommend keeping the default 

roles with their default permissions and responsibilities. Because users can be 

assigned multiple roles, and permissions are cumulative, your business can 

combine roles as needed to reflect the workload your people undertake to 

manage and use the system.

Users inherit roles from their parent groups—local or enterprise. They cannot 
inherit roles from groups more distantly removed—for example, from their 
grandparent groups.

The role names Administrator, Operator, and Scheduler are stored in the 
system database and are not localized into other languages. If you wish to 
localize their names into your language, edit the roles and enter new names for 
them.

To ensure CMA system access and stability, the default Administrator role cannot 
be deleted or edited.
