The Cisco TelePresence Manager Administration and Installation Guide is directed to the administrator that configures, monitors, and maintains the Cisco TelePresence Manager application, and troubleshoots problems that may occur.

What's New in this Release

This section describes new and changed information in Cisco TelePresence Manager beginning with Release 1.6.

•Studio mode recording - allows an administrator to turn on global studio mode recording if all managed CTS endpoints are upgraded to the supported version. CTS is configured using the CTS UI, with a preferred recording server which would dial out to meetings, allowing the one button to push recording for the meeting

•Concierge changed to Live Desk

•Tentative Room Reservations - CTS-Manager now processes room reservations which are in tentative state. A tentative state implies meeting invite has been viewed by room/CTS-500 owner but not accepted yet. CTS-Manager would treat a tentative reservation as an accepted reservation

•Support for MS Exchange 2003/2007 deployments using Windows 2008 platform

•Enhancement Email Management - more support to email notifications on a global basis, admin can turn off or on email notifications

•Hardware MIB- new hardware MIBs are supported in 1.6 release

•Support for MS Exchange 2007 Web Services using FBA (Form Based Authentication)

•SD Interop supported with CIF; HD Interop with CUVC 7.0 supports 720p

•Support for multiple CUCM Clusters - supports One Button To Push in CUCM multi-cluster deployment. The ens user does not need to dial any special number to dial across the clusters in that CTS-Manager will formulate the numbers dialed by CTS end points to go across clusters based on CUCM configurations.

•Support for multiple LDAP Domains/Forests in MS Exchange Deployments - CTS-Manager supports interacting with a maximum of 5 LDAP servers per deployment

•Optional First Time Setup using the Pre-Qualifier tool.

•Release 1.6.3 and later support unlimited LDAP servers for Microsoft Exchange WebDAV and EWS environments.
