Content Sharing via Polycom CSS (Content Sharing Suite) Plug-in for Lync
Clients
The Polycom CSS (Content Sharing Suite) Plug-in for Lync clients allows Lync clients to
receive and send Content on a separate channel, without having to use the video channel.
Content is transmitted using SIP BFCP. For more details, see "Sharing Content via the Polycom
CSS Plug-in for Lync Clients” on page H-52.
Configuring the Collaboration Server for Microsoft
Integration
The Collaboration Server is integrated in Microsoft Office Communications Server R2
(Wave 13) and Microsoft Lync Server environments by setting its Transport Type (in the SIP
server configuration) to TLS and creating a certificate that is sent to the Collaboration
Server. This procedure is also required when encryption of SIP signaling is used.
In addition, if the DNS server was not enabled in the Network Management Service on the
Collaboration Server, it must be enabled for the integration in Microsoft Office
Communications Server (R2, Wave 13) and the Lync Server (Wave 14) environments.
Modify the Collaboration Server Management Network Service to Include
the DNS Server
The Management Network that is defined during first entry setup does not include the
definition of the DNS which is mandatory in Microsoft environment and has to be modified.
To add the definition of the DNS to the Management Network in the Collaboration
Server:
1 Using the Web browser, connect to the Collaboration Server.
2 In the Collaboration Server Management pane, expand the Rarely Used list and click IP
Network Services ().
3 In the IP Network Services pane, double-click the Management Service .
The Management Network Properties - IP dialog box opens.
From Version 7.0.x, Microsoft R1 is not supported with Collaboration Server systems.
In Multiple Networks configurations, a DNS server can be specified for each IP Network Service and
for the Collaboration Server Management Network Service.
