User Management
• Integrate the Polycom DMA system with an enterprise directory (requires
Security Administrator permissions). This integration allows users to log
into the Polycom DMA system with their enterprise directory user names
and passwords.
When a Polycom DMA system is integrated with an enterprise directory,
the enterprise directory users are automatically added as Polycom DMA
system users with a Conferencing User role and displayed in the Polycom
DMA system Users list. An administrator can assign them additional roles
as required.
Note
You must be an enterprise user (with the appropriate user role assignments) to see
and work with enterprise users. A local user can only see other local users,
regardless of user roles.
A newly installed system has a single local user account, admin. We strongly
recommend that, as part of initial system setup, you create a local user account
for yourself with the Security Administrator and Technical Administrator
roles, log in using that account, and delete the admin user account. See the
caution and first procedure in “Users Procedures” on page 5-8.
You may then wish to create other local user accounts or to integrate with an
enterprise directory and then assign additional roles to the appropriate
enterprise users.
Integration with an enterprise directory is described in “Enterprise Directory”
on page 8-3.
