4. After installing or upgrading Avaya Video Conferencing Manager, you can deploy the
integration in one of the following ways. Refer to “Configuring Microsoft Exchange
Server” on page 36 for detailed configuration steps for these options.
Option 1:
Create a resource mailbox in Microsoft Exchange Server for each conference room that
contains a video or voice communications system managed by Avaya Video
Conferencing Manager, if one does not already exist. Forward each conference room
mailbox to the Avaya Video Conferencing Manager mailbox. In Avaya Video
Conferencing Manager, associate the managed video or voice communications system
with the email address of the mailbox resource for the conference room. When Microsoft
Outlook users add conference rooms to a meeting request, Avaya Video Conferencing
Manager automatically schedules the video or voice communications device associated
with these conference rooms and places the call at the scheduled meeting time.
Note: If your network includes MCUs managed by Avaya Video Conferencing
Manager and you wish to allow meeting participants to select an MCU to include in a call
scheduled through Microsoft Outlook, you must also create a resource mailbox in
Microsoft Exchange Server for each MCU; forward each MCU mailbox to the Avaya
Video Conferencing Manager mailbox; and associate the MCU with the email address of
the mailbox resource for the MCU.
Benefits:
With this option, Microsoft Outlook users do not need to be aware of or add the
video or voice communications devices to the meeting request as separate invitees.
Avaya Video Conferencing Manager automatically places the scheduled call to the
devices that reside in the conference rooms that the meeting organizer includes in
the meeting request.
Limitations:
Users may not want to use video or voice communications devices in the meetings.
Consider using this option if conference rooms that contain video or voice
communications devices are dedicated for use as video or voice conferencing
rooms. Users who wish to select an MCU to add to a call must remember to add the
MCU as a separate invitee.
