settings according to endpoint model and software version.
Dynamic Provisioning Profile Best Practices
To ensure out-of-box usability, the RealPresence Resource Manager system
comes with default site and user group provisioning profiles. However, to
create your desired user experiences, you should:
1 For each site in the RealPresence Resource Manager system, configure the
site provisioning details as needed for each site.
Some settings can only be provisioned using a site provisioning profile.
For more information about site provisioning, see “Using Site
Provisioning Profiles” on page 227.
2 If you need unique provisioning settings for one or more groups of users,
create user group provisioning profiles with those settings and apply
them to the appropriate groups.
See “Using User Group Provisioning Profiles” on page 243 and “Add a
Local Group” on page 355.
For example, you may want to set a higher bit rate for the executives of
your organization or for conference rooms used for large video
conferences. You can create a group for these users/rooms and give that
group an user group provisioning profile with a higher bit rate.
