Description
Routing Name is the name with which ongoing conferences, Meeting
Rooms, Entry Queues and SIP Factories register with various
devices on the network such as gatekeepers and SIP servers. This
name must be defined using ASCII characters.
Comma, colon and semicolon characters cannot be used in the
Routing Name.
The Routing Name can be defined by the user or automatically
generated by the system if no Routing Name is entered as follows:
•
If ASCII characters are entered as the Display Name, it is used
also as the Routing Name
•
If a combination of Unicode and ASCII characters (or full Unicode
text) is entered as the Display Name, the ID (such as Conference
ID) is used as the Routing Name.
If the same name is already used by another conference, Meeting
Room or Entry Queue, the Collaboration Server displays an error
message and requests that you enter a different name.
The system displays the name of the default Conference Profile.
Select the required Profile from the list.
The Conference Profile includes the conferencing mode, conference
line rate, media settings and general settings.
For a detailed description of Conference Profiles, see the Polycom®
RealPresence Collaboration Server 800s Administrator's Guide,
"Conference Profiles" on page 2-1.
Enter the unique-per-MCU conference ID. If left blank, the MCU
automatically assigns a number once the conference is launched.
This ID must be communicated to conference participants to enable
them to dial in to the conference.
Note: If setting the Conference ID to the digits that are used for MCU
prefix in Gatekeeper (for example gatekeeper prefix is set to 10 and
the conference ID is 1001), the system will not be able to dial to the
destination conference as the prefix digits are truncated from the
conference ID, preventing the system from locating it.
Note: If SIP Factories are used do not use the number 7001 as an ID.
7001 is the default SIP Factory ID.
Enter a password to be used by participants to access the
conference. If left blank, no password is assigned to the conference.
This password is valid only in conferences that are configured to
prompt for a conference password.
This field is numeric and has a default length of 4 characters. The
administrator can modify it in the Setup - System Configuration
settings. For more information, see the Polycom® RealPresence
Collaboration Server 800s Administrator's Guide,

The Collaboration Server can be configured to automatically generate
