Integrating the Collaboration Server into the Microsoft
Office Communications Server Environment
When the Collaboration Server is integrated into the Office Communications Server environment, calls to
conferences running on the Collaboration Server can be routed using Matched URI dialing and/or Numerical
dialing.
Both routing methods (numerical dialing and Matched URI dialing) can be enabled simultaneously in the
Office Communications Server and the Collaboration Server system or you can enable one of these
methods, depending on your environment requirements.
In both methods, the Collaboration Server configuration is the same.
Setting the Matched URI Dialing Method
To enable the Matched URI dialing method the following tasks have to be completed:
Office Communications Server side:
1
Set the Static Route & Trusted Host for Collaboration Server in the Office Communications Server.
2 Optional if Load Balancer Server is present.
Set the Static Route & Trusted Host for
Collaboration Server in the Load Balancer server.
Collaboration Server side:
The following tasks are detailed in
Configuring the Collaboration Server for Microsoft Integration
.
1
Modify the Management Network Service to include the DNS server and set the Transport Type to
TLS.
2
Create the security certificate (using one of the two available methods)
3
Define a SIP Network Service in the Collaboration Server and install the TLS certificate.
4

For a detailed description of the configuration of the Polycom conferencing components for the integration
in Microsoft Office Communications Server 2007 see the
Polycom® HDX and Collaboration Server™
Systems Integration with Microsoft Office Communications Server 2007 Deployment Guide.
In ICE environment, to enable the Matched URI dialing in the federated environment to be able to connect
to the Collaboration Server SIP signaling domain, you must also configure the Office Communications
Server. When federating an Office Communications Server edge server with another Office
Communications Server environment, you need to include the FQDN of the Office Communications Server
edge server as well as the SIP signaling domain for federated environment. The SIP signaling domain is the
FQDN of the Polycom DMA system or a Polycom Collaboration Server system (when your deployment does
not include a DMA system).
Note:
The RMX does not support working with multiple edge servers.
