Polycom, Inc.
On the Polycom DMA system, enable cascading in some or all of your
3
conference templates.
If you don't have a Polycom CMA 5000 system, you must define your site
topology in the Polycom DMA system instead of importing it. See
Topology Configuration"
For a conference with cascading enabled, the Polycom DMA system uses the
site topology information to route calls to the nearest eligible MCU (based on
pools and pool orders) that has available capacity. If that MCU is new to the
conference, the DMA system creates the cascade link to the MCU initially
chosen to host the conference.
Cascading always uses a hub-and-spoke configuration. The MCU chosen for
the first call to a conference becomes the hub. Each new MCU is connected
directly to that hub MCU. Cascade MCUs can never be more than one link
away from the hub.
The following table describes the fields in the Conference Templates list.
