Preparing to Install the Video Integration with DMZ Configurations

A DMZ is an area on the corporate network that is outside the corporate firewall. In order to allow
external participants to attend Cisco MeetingPlace conferences without compromising security, one or
more Cisco MeetingPlace Web Conferencing servers are deployed behind the firewall, and one or more
web-conferencing servers are deployed in a DMZ. These configurations are called "segmented meeting
access" (SMA) configurations; they are described fully in the Administrator's Guide for
Cisco MeetingPlace Web Conferencing Release 5.3.
Cisco MeetingPlace Video Integration must be installed on one and only one server on which

If it is installed behind the firewall, only internal participants can attend video conferences.
If it is installed in the DMZ, external participants can also attend.
If Cisco MeetingPlace Video Integration is installed in the DMZ, meeting schedulers must allow
Internet access for all conferences that will include video, even if only internal participants will
attend. The web and video conferences will be held on the server in the DMZ.
If Cisco MeetingPlace Video Integration is installed behind the firewall in a DMZ configuration,
users cannot include video conferencing in a meeting that also includes web-conferencing
participants who are outside the firewall.
Additional caveats apply. See
