Upgrade of VCS components
You can now upgrade individual VCS components separately. The main component is the VCS
platform, and when upgraded will typically include automatic upgrades of some or all of the other
components.
Administrator tools
The Locate test tool lets you specify the zone from which to simulate the origin of the search
n
request.
The Port usage tools let you export port usage details in a CSV format file suitable for reviewing in
n
a spreadsheet application.
System configuration
An External LAN interface field is used to indicate on the IP page which LAN port has been
n
connected to your external network. It also determines the port from which TURN server relay
allocations are made.
On the DNS page you can now specify the Local host name. This is the DNS host name that this
n
VCS is known by.
The NTP server field on the Time page now defaults to one of four NTP servers provided by Cisco,
n
either: 0.ntp.tandberg.com, 1.ntp.tandberg.com, 2.ntp.tandberg.com or 3.ntp.tandberg.com.
SIP configuration
New parameters have been added to the SIP configuration page.
SIP session expiry timers can be configured through the Session refresh interval and Minimum
n
session refresh interval settings.
SIP device interoperability can now be configured through the Require UDP BFCP mode and
n
Require Duo Video mode settings. Note that the default setting of On for these modes is not
supported by some neighbor systems so make sure you select the appropriate Zone profile when
configuring zones.
X4
Multiway™
VCS now supports standards-based Multiway™. This feature allows endpoint users to initiate ad hoc
multiparty calls from their endpoint, -even if the endpoint does not have embedded MultiSite™
capabilities. To enable this feature you must enable and configure the Conference Factory application
on the VCS.
TMS Agent
The TMS Agent allows Movi™ v2.0 clients registered to the VCS to be provisioned with phone book
and configuration information by connecting to the VCS rather than directly to TMS.
Microsoft OCS 2007 interoperability
The VCS now includes an OCS Relay application, which makes FindMe presence information
n
available to Microsoft Office Communicator (MOC) clients, and enables Microsoft Office
Communications Server (OCS) 2007 to forward calls to FindMe aliases.
Neighbor and DNS zones now include a pre-configured zone profile for connections to an OCS.
n
Static NAT support
A VCS Expressway with the Dual Network Interfaces option installed can now be deployed in a DMZ
with a static private address mapped to a public IP address of the external firewall.
