Protocol (CCCP)

Office Communicator and Microsoft Lync contacts appear on the RealPresence
Group system and on the Contacts screen. To add or delete Office
Communicator or Microsoft Lync contacts on the Polycom RealPresence
Group system, use the Office Communicator or Microsoft Lync application.
To manage contacts using Office Communicator or Microsoft Lync:
1 Log in to Office Communicator or Microsoft Lync with the same account
information specified in the SIP settings of your Polycom RealPresence
Group system.
2 From Office Communicator or Microsoft Lync, you can add and remove
contacts.
Changes made to contacts using Office Communicator or Microsoft Lync
appear on the RealPresence Group system Contacts list.
Polycom RealPresence Group systems do not support Office Communicator or
Microsoft Lync distribution list groups, which are created on the Microsoft
Exchange Server and are typically used for sending email to a group of people.
If a Polycom RealPresence Group system is deployed in a Microsoft Lync
Server 2010 environment and Centralized Conferencing Control Protocol
(CCCP) is enabled, you can place and participate in multipoint calls that are
hosted by Microsoft audio and video servers. If you are used to being in
conferences hosted by a Lync server, you will notice that the Polycom
RealPresence system interface closely resembles the interface you see in
Microsoft environments.
For more information about CCCP multipoint calling, refer to the Polycom
Unified Communications Deployment Guide for Microsoft Environments or contact
your system administrator.
To manually create a multipoint call with CCCP:
1 From the Call screen on the Polycom Touch Control, touch Conference.
2 Create a list of participants you want in the call. You can add participants
using any combination of the following methods.
— Touch Keypad, then enter SIP addresses. Each time you enter a SIP
address, touch Add to add it to the list of participants.
— Touch Directory, then touch the names you want to include in the list
of participants. If you touch a group, the group opens and you can
touch the individual names to add them.
