MLA (Multipoint Layout Application) is required for managing CTS 3XXX layouts whether
Polycom TPX, RPX or OTX systems are deployed or not. MLA is a Windows® application that
allows conference administrators to configure and control video layouts for multipoint calls
involving Polycom Immersive Telepresence (ITP) systems.
Call Detail Records (CDR) are generated on both the CMA Gatekeeper and the CUCM for
reporting and billing purposes.
Content
Polycom and Cisco endpoints can share Content within a Cisco TelePresence environment. The
content sharing experience depends on whether the endpoints are registered with the DMA
