System Endpoint
Fault management • The Cisco TelePresence Multipoint Switch provides limited fault
management capabilities. The web-based GUI interface can display errors
and warnings for scheduled and non-scheduled meetings, as well as system
errors.

• The Cisco TelePresence Multipoint Switch web-based GUI provides
device/element management capabilities, in that the configuration of the
Cisco TelePresence Multipoint Switch itself is accomplished through the
GUI. Limited configuration support of the Cisco TelePresence Multipoint
Switch is available via an SSH CLI as well.
• The Cisco TelePresence Multipoint Switch web-based GUI also provides the
interface for administrators and meeting schedulers to configure static and
ad hoc TelePresence meetings.
• The Cisco TelePresence Multipoint Switch web-based GUI provides
centralized call statistics for multipoint calls, including SLA parameters such
as bit rates, latency, drops, jitter, and so on, per Cisco TelePresence System
endpoint.
• The Cisco TelePresence Multipoint Switch web-based GUI also provides
historical statistics for Cisco TelePresence Multipoint Switch resources
including CPU utilization, traffic load per interface, packet discards, TCP
connections, memory, and disk usage.
• The Cisco TelePresence Multipoint Switch web-based GUI provides the
interface for configuration of the security requirements for static and ad hoc
TelePresence meetings.
• Access control to the Cisco TelePresence Multipoint Switch is via the local
database with three roles: administrator, meeting scheduler, or diagnostic
technician.
Fault management • The Cisco TelePresence System web-based GUI and SSH interfaces both
provide device/element management capabilities, including a view of the
system status, as well as diagnostics that can be used to troubleshoot the
camera, microphone, and display components of the Cisco TelePresence
System endpoint.
Configuration
management
• SIP Message log files accessed through the Cisco TelePresence System
web-based GUI can be used to troubleshoot SIP signaling between the
Cisco TelePresence System endpoint and Cisco Unified Communications
Manager.
• Additional Cisco TelePresence System log files can be collected and
downloaded via the web-based GUI to provide system-level troubleshooting
capabilities.
• Status of peripheral devices (cameras, displays, microphones, and so on) can
be accessed centrally via SNMP through the CISCO-TELEPRESENCE-MIB.
• The Cisco TelePresence System web-based GUI and SSH interfaces both
provide information regarding current hardware and software versions and
current configuration of the Cisco TelePresence System endpoint. Limited
configuration is done on the Cisco TelePresence System endpoint itself. Most
of the configuration is done via the Cisco Unified Communications Manager
Administrator web-based GUI.
