User Information
Preferences
The format must be [email protected].
Language
This setting lets the users select between 20 different languages in
Cisco Scheduler, where six of the languages also affect the rest of
Cisco TMS (English, Simplified Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Russian
and French.) English is the default language for Cisco TMS so that
users who select, for example, Swedish as the language, they will get
the Scheduler presented in Swedish and the rest of Cisco TMS in
English.

SIP URI:
This is the user’s SIP URI. This field is used by the Cisco LCS
integration. The SIP URI is automatically retrieved from AD if the AD
lookup is properly configured in Cisco TMS.
Time Zone
This setting is used to present the correct time and date information for
the users in Cisco Scheduler (if the client is on a different location than
the Cisco TMS server).
IP Zone
This field allows users to select an IP zone where they are situated.
This IP zone is used when a user books a meeting with only dial-in
participants, to ensure that the Cisco TelePresence MCU that is closest
to the user is picked.

This option lets the user choose how many of the previously used
systems should be shown when booking a meeting in Cisco TMS.

Limiting access to Cisco TMS/Locking out a set of users
Cisco TMS is running on top of Microsoft Internet Information Server and is therefore also utilizing the
Windows user structure for authentication. If the Cisco TMS server is part of a domain, Cisco TMS will
look up any new and existing users in the Active Directory or the local users to see if the users have
the proper permissions to access the Cisco TMS server. If the user has access to the server, they will
also get access to Cisco TMS, and automatically become members of the user groups defined in
Default Groups. When Cisco TMS is installed the first time, all new users will become members of the
Site Administrator group. This should be changed as soon as possible. By setting Default Groups to
Users and limiting the access of the group Users, you can deny access to Cisco TMS to all new
users, even if they are allowed to access the server through the user permissions. A Video Unit
Administrator can then grant each new user the proper permissions by adding them to a new custom
defined group.
Groups
Go to Administrative Tools > User Administration > Groups. This is where you view, edit and set
permissions for Cisco TMS user groups.
