Contacts with Presence

If your system is automatically provisioned and registered to a global

directory server, your Favorites might include default LDAP group members

and up to 200 global Contacts stored by the presence service.
If the system is registered with a global directory, you could see the following

icons next to Contacts on the Favorites screen.

You can view Contact details in the system’s local interface. Highlight the

Contact and press

. A dialog appears with the display name, address, call

speed, and group.

Including Multiple Sites in Calls

Your system might be configured to participate in multipoint calls. During a

multipoint call, multiple sites can see and hear each other. You can also share

content in a multipoint call, just as you can in a point-to-point call.
You can host multipoint calls using a video conferencing system with

multipoint capabilities, or you can use a bridge such as the Polycom

RMX 1000, Polycom RMX 2000, or Polycom MGC™.
