AVOID_VIDEO_LOOP_BAC
K_IN_CASCADE
When set to YES the current speaker’s image is not sent back 
through the participant link in cascaded conferences with 
conference layouts other than 1x1.
Default: YES
Range: YES / NO
BLOCK_CONTENT_LEGAC
Y_FOR_LYNC
This flag is used to control the system behavior in an 
environment where some Lync clients use the Polycom CCS 
plug-in and some do not. 
When set to NO (default), Content is sent to all Lync clients 
over the video channel, including those with the plug-in 
installed, even when the Send Content to Legacy Endpoints is 
disabled. Other, non-Lync legacy endpoints will not be 
affected by this flag and will receive content according to the 
Send Content to Legacy Endpoints settings in the conference 
Profile.
When set to YES, Content is not sent to Lync clients over the 
video channel including those with the Polycom CCS plug-in 
installed, even when the Send Content to Legacy Endpoints is 
enabled. Other, non-Lync legacy endpoints will not be affected 
by this flag and will receive content according to the Send 
Content to Legacy Endpoints settings in the conference 
Profile.
BONDING_DIALING_METH
OD
(ISDN)
When set to:
• SEQUENTIAL
The MCU initiates channel connections sequentially until it 
reaches the number of channels defined by the 
BONDING_NUM_CHANNELS_IN
_GROUP flag. 
When a channel is connected, dialing begins for the next 
channel in the group.
• BY_TIMERS
The MCU initiates channel connections sequentially using 
the values of the BONDING_CHANNEL _DELAY and 
BONDING_GROUP_DELAY flags.
The first group of channels is dialed, using the 
BONDING_CHANNEL_DELAY between dialing attempts 
for each channel in the group.
The Collaboration Server then implements the 
BONDING_GROUP_DELAY, before dialing the first 
channel of the next group.
Default: SEQUENTIAL
BONDING_GROUP_DELAY
(ISDN)
When connecting several bonding groups, this is the delay 
(number of 1/100 seconds) preceding the first dialing attempt 
to connect the next bonding group.
Default: 500
