Managing The Mgc+ Conference Bridges With Mgc Manager - Polycom MGC+100 Overview

Polycom MGC/MGC+ Unified Conferencing Bridges
Solution Overview
•
Meeting Room – the ability to have a dormant reservation running on the conference bridge. Dialling into a
specific number on the system activates the reservation. This enables users to create instant ad-hoc
conferences without the need for a central administrator or access to user-based scheduling systems.

ANAGING THE
Operations support and system administration of the Polycom MGC/MGC+ platforms are accomplished using
the MGC Manager application that has already proven its capability with operations departments worldwide.
MGC Manager enables an operator or administrator to view and manage all system chassis resources in a single
view as well as monitor, provide operations support and administer a global network of audio and video MCUs and
gateways.
Using MGC Manager an operator is able to diagnose hardware fault conditions down to the DSP level on a resource
module. DSPs found to be in a fault state can be reset to bring them back on-line or taken off-line allowing the MCU
to continue operations using the remaining resources on the module.
The ability of one operator to support multiple bridges and gateways, plus the ability to have multiple operators
support the same MCU or gateway are the capabilities that are required to support networks deployed across multiple
time zones and where operations back-up is essential.
The ability to use ONE SYSTEM MANAGEMENT interface to support audio and video MCU and gateway systems
and conferences is unique and delivers significant benefits when looking at providing support and maintenance
across a complete conferencing network.
