Polycom CMA System Setup Overview

In Routed mode, the number of concurrent calls supported by a CMA system 

is derived from the number of device licenses at a 3/10 ratio (calls/devices). 

So, for example, a system in Routed mode licensed for 5000 devices supports 

up to 1500 calls.
The advantage of Routed mode is that it enables advanced features such as 

Simplified Dialing, Conference on Demand, Alternate Routing, Least Cost 

Routing, MCU board hunting and firewall traversal for a Polycom VBP system 

in "Enterprise" or "E" mode. Routed mode is also supported for the Polycom 

VBP system in "Service Provider" or "S" mode. 
The disadvantage of routed mode is that a gatekeeper failure and restart 

terminates all running conferences that include a registered device. Calls are 

not reestablished after a system failure and restart. Conferences show a status 

of Active, but participants show a status of Disconnected. 
In either mode, CDR information for calls is accurate if the CMA system does 

not fail and the endpoints send a DRQ (Disconnect Request) at the end of the 

call.

Polycom now supports two conferencing methods when integrating Polycom 

conferencing with Microsoft Outlook: Reserved and Reservationless. 

Reserved conferencing is standard with the CMA system. All conferences 

scheduled either through the CMA system web scheduler or one of the 

Scheduling Plugins are reserved conferences, which means the CMA system 

reserves video bridge, network resources, and video endpoints at the 

scheduled time. In this case, the calendars for the endpoints are stored and 

maintained by the CMA system.
When the conference is scheduled using the Scheduling Plugin for Microsoft 

Outlook and the participants use Microsoft Outlook as their E-mail and 

calendaring tool, the scheduled conferences are also posted as meetings on the 

participants’ Outlook calendars. However, the endpoints themselves do not 

have Outlook calendars.

If you wish to implement both reserved conferencing (enabled by a CMA system) 
and reservationless or ad hoc conferencing (enabled by a Polycom DMA system), 
you should create two pools of RMX bridges as described in 

page 225. However if you do, Polycom does not recommend using both the 
Polycom Scheduling Plug-in for Microsoft Outlook (Reserved Conferencing) and 
the Polycom Conferencing Add-in for Microsoft Outlook (Reservationless 
Conferencing) on the same client system.
