Understanding Users, Groups, and
Roles
The Polycom
®
RealPresence
®
Resource Manager system supports two types of
users.
• Users that come directly from the enterprise directory. These users are
referred to as enterprise users.
• Users that are local to the management system. These users are added
manually to the system or imported.
Both user types can be assigned management roles, associated with endpoints,
and organized in groups.
By default all users can be scheduled into conferences, and call into
conferences. However, the system cannot call out to them until they are
associated with endpoints.
This chapter provides an overview of the Polycom
