System Setup
Recording of conferences is performed over a PSTN/ISDN or an IP (H.323)
connection established between the conferencing MCU and the
ReadiRecorder. The Polycom ReadiRecorder handles any combination of
recordings or playbacks on up to 48 ports in a mixed IP or PSTN/ISDN
network. Conferences are recorded by the ReadiRecorder over a dial-out
connection from the conference to the recording system. This connection is
called Recording Link. Recording Links are defined on the conferencing
MCU, in the MGC Manager application.
To connect conferences to the recording system, the Recording Link uses the
dialing number which was defined in the ReadiRecorder’s Recording Service.
To access the stored recordings of conferences, the end-user dials the number
which was defined in the ReadiRecorder’s Playback Service. Recording and
Playback Services are configured on the ReadiRecorder in the MGC Manager
application.

the IVR Message Service. IVR must be configured before the Recording and
Playback Services definition since it includes the DTMF codes and messages,
such as pause or resume recordings which are required for controlling the
