Polycom® RealPresence® SVC-Based Conferencing Solutions Deployment Guide

Deploying the RealPresence Virtualization Manager (DMA) in the Enterprise
Environment
The RealPresence Virtualization Manager (DMA) is used as the primary video conferencing
call controller. It provides conference management, call control, port signaling and functions
as the conference focus. Additionally, the RealPresence Virtualization Manager (DMA)
communicates with the provisioning server to configure conferences, create virtual meeting
rooms (VMR), and connects participants to conferences.
The RealPresence Virtualization Manager (DMA) is used as the SIP Proxy server when
making SVC-based calls.
Upgrading the RealPresence Virtualization Manager (DMA) software to version 5.2 enables
the enterprise deployment to keep the existing Polycom DMA component and use the
RealPresence Virtualization Manager (DMA) for SVC-based conferencing.
For more information on the RealPresence Virtualization Manager (DMA), see the Polycom®
DMA™ 7000 System Operations Guide.
Deploying the RealPresence Resource Manager in the Enterprise Environment
The RealPresence Resource Manager is an integrated scheduling and device management
platform for video conferencing. The RealPresence Resource Manager handles the
provisioning of the conference participant endpoints and the scheduling of video
conferencing. Additionally, it communicates with the enterprise’s management applications
and servers such as user authentication, DNS, and Email servers.
The RealPresence Resource Manager replaces the CMA 4000/5000 in the SVC-based
conferencing architecture. An existing CMA server may be used in an enterprise
deployment but with limited SVC-based conferencing support - the scheduling of SVC-
based conferences are not supported.
