Default Polycom conference contacts presence settings
The following table illustrates the two modes of operation for the Default Polycom conference contacts
presence settings field. The choices available for this field depend on the status of the Publish presence
for Polycom conference contacts and Create Polycom conference contacts check boxes.
Note that the setting in this field can be overridden by other presence settings in the system. See Microsoft
Lync 2013 Integration on page 167 for more information.
To specify conference settings
1 Go to Admin > Conference Manager > Conference Settings.
VMR display name pattern The text pattern that describes the name of the VMR contact. This text will
precede the VMR number when displayed in the Lync contact window (for
example, a VMR display name pattern of “Conference room” would create
display names of “Conference room <VMR number>”). The maximum pattern
length is 63 characters.
After you edit this field, it may take some time for the change to be seen in the
Lync client, depending on how many conference contacts the RealPresence
DMA system is managing.
Note: This field is enabled when the Create Polycom conference contacts
check box is checked.
OU for contacts The Active Directory OU (Organizational Unit) in which the RealPresence
