Application-Specific Management Functionality
The following sections summarize the components that provide application-specific management
functionality for each of the four major video application solutions that co-exist over a converged
medianet infrastructure: Cisco TelePresence, Cisco Digital Media Suite, Cisco IP Video Surveillance,
and Cisco Desktop Video Collaboration.
Cisco TelePresence
Within Cisco TelePresence, application-specific management functionality is distributed among the
following four major components of the deployment:
• Cisco TelePresence System Manager
• Cisco TelePresence Multipoint Switch
• Cisco Unified Communications Manager
• Cisco TelePresence System endpoints
Figure 6-26 provides a high-level summary of the main management roles of each of the components of
