ICEover IPv4 is used toconnect the RMX toAVMCUThe Collaboration Server supports federation with Service Providers inscenarios where the RPP solution and the Service Provider reside inseparate locations.This enables customers with Lync infrastructure, but no Polycominfrastructure, to invite into Lync conferences non-Lync users, where bothuser types may enjoy complete Lync/Polycom experience, respectively.Connection between Collaboration Server and AVMCU uses ICE overIPv4.LyncCommon ChairpersonbetweenCollaboration Serverand AVMCUMicrosoft Lync presenter is similar to chairperson behavior inCollaboration Server. The two concepts are now interacting to aconsistent behavior across joined meetings.This enables conferencing stability due to possible discrepancy betweenLync and Collaboration Server organizer/chairperson settings, as well asprevent unauthorized mis-usage of Collaboration Server conferencingservices via the VMR created by Lync.LyncRMX failover throughDMA - handling Lync2013 AVMCUconnectionShould the Collaboration Server fall during a RealConnect conferencewith Microsoft Lync, the DMA now maintains information on theRealConnected AVMCU, such that in addition to the previousre-establishment of the conference on an alternate Collaboration Server,the DMA also recreates the link with the AVMCU, and disconnects all itslinks to the original Collaboration Server.Lync &NetworkLync Front EndServer DNSFailover/LoadBalancingThe Collaboration Server uses a new methodology to ensure Lync FrontEnd Pool load balancing, as well as failover, via DNS.LyncSupport forMicrosoft Skype forBusinessPolycom added support for Microsoft Skype for Business as part ofPolycom products’ deployment into Microsoft Environment.The Polycom product versions and the Microsoft Skype for Businessversions tested can be found in the Products Tested with this Releasebelow.LyncNote: The latest RPP versions are required.Endpoints and CodecsPolycom, Inc.4

Release NotesRealPresence Collaboration Server,Virtual Edition - Version 8.6.7System Upgrade InformationThe following sections provide important information about upgrading RealPresence Collaboration Server,Virtual Edition systems to this release.Virtual Edition Host Server Platform ProfileThis section provides information on the minimal Virtual Machine host settings and configuration, requiredfor the deployment of RealPresence Collaboration Server, Virtual Edition, of which some are manual.Note: Dedicated VM ServerTo maximize audio and video quality, Polycom strongly recommends a dedicated VM server perCollaboration Server.The described configuration is not mandatory; however, failing to follow it may result in degraded video andaudio performance. Due to differences between hardware and VM environments, the performanceinformation below is provided for guidance purposes only, and does not represent a guarantee of any kindby Polycom.Deployment Settings - Minimum / RecommendedComponentMinimum Deployment SettingsRecommended Deployment SettingsvCPU25000 MHz Reservation90000 MHz ReservationMemory16 GB Reservation16 GB ReservationNetwork Adapter (NIC)2 x 1Gbit2 x 1GbitHard Disk (Thin/Thick Provisioning)30 GB30 GBPerformance14 SD ports or 7 HD ports60 SD ports or 30 HD portsNOTE: vCPUFor Intel CPUs, when Hyperthreading is enabled, the numbers above refer to logical cores (vCores)and not physical ones.Note: Network Interface CardDepending on the environment, the virtual machine might need a Network Interface Card (NIC) fromthe host dedicated for the virtual machine. For more information, refer to your VMware administrator.An example for a recommended deployment is a 32 logical cores machine at 2.9GHz.To install a virtual MCU from scratch, 60GB is required.Polycom, Inc.13
Release NotesRealPresence Collaboration Server,Virtual Edition - Version 8.6.7CPU Reservations for Licenses PurchasedThe Administrator is required to change the number of cores per socket so that the total number of coresreflects the CPU cores required for the purchased licenses.The table below demonstrates the more common/likely machines.
