Endpoints and endpoint groups

Adding an endpoint group

You can configure individual endpoints to work as a single, immersive endpoint. To use this feature you must
have the "Third party interop" feature key installed. You can install feature keys on the
Upgrade
page. (See
Upgrading and backing up the Cisco TelePresence
Note: A multi-screen endpoint is not the same as an endpoint group.
The TelePresence Server supports a maximum of 200 endpoints. Each member of an endpoint group counts
as one endpoint towards this maximum, so a group could count as up to four endpoints, but a multi-screen
endpoint only counts as one.
All group members will also share one of the endpoint's audio capabilities - unlike multi-screen endpoints
which typically associate audio streams with video streams - which means that the TelePresence Server is
unable to tell which camera is associated with the audio contribution. It cannot determine which camera is
pointing at the person who is speaking, which in turn prevents the ActivePresence layout from working
properly for grouped endpoints.
To add an endpoint group:
1. Go to
Endpoints > Add grouped
2. Enter the Name of the group and the addresses of its members. See the table below.
3. Click Add grouped endpoints.
4. Configure the endpoint group in the same way as you would configure an individual endpoint. Refer to the
edit endpoint topic
for details of the settings.
