Each selected device is automatically provisioned (with bandwidth limits and phone book information, for
n
example) when that device registers to the VCS.
You can specify an additional principal device by setting Other device to On and then specifying the
n
required URI of the device. If required, you can add further non-principal devices by clicking
the
Edit user account
Note that the VCS only sends provisioning information to the pre-configured device types (Movi / Jabber
Video, E20 and so on). Other principal devices added by the administrator or any other devices added by the
FindMe user are not provisioned by the VCS.
If your system's authentication policy is configured to check credentials, then authentication credentials for
the provisioned devices must be set up in the relevant credential store (typically the local database). The
credential name must be the same as account username and the credential password must be the same as
the password configured on the provisioned devices. See
Note: all device address URIs are converted to lower case.
Multiple VCS clusters
If you are part of a large enterprise with, for example, TMS managing several VCS clusters, the database
may contain details of users and devices in other VCS clusters. Different clusters are distinguished by their
Cluster name. You cannot modify the details of accounts that are not managed in your cluster.

Note that this page does not apply if the VCS is using the
user account data; in this case, user accounts are maintained through TMS.
Users are not allowed to delete or change the address of their principal devices; they can only change the
Device name. This is to stop users from unintentionally changing their basic FindMe configuration. Principal
devices are also used by the VCS to decide which FindMe name to display as a Caller ID if the same device
address is associated with more than one account.
The page lists all of the devices currently associated with the selected user. The Principal device column
indicates each device's current status as a principal device or not.
To set devices as a principal device, select the box next to the required devices and click Set as principal
n
device.
To set devices so they are no longer principal devices, select the required devices and click Unset as
n
principal device.
Note that only an administrator (and not users themselves) can configure which of a user's devices are their
principal devices.
