About this task
The Multi-Stream Switching (MSS) video solution uses the advanced switched video capabilities in
the Avaya Aura
®
Media Server (AMS) to distribute multiple video streams to each MSS aware
participant. The following clients and components support MSS:
• XT Series endpoints
• Avaya Workplace Client clients
• Avaya Aura
®
components
• Avaya Aura
®
Media Server
• Avaya Meetings Management
MSS is only supported for SIP calls.
You cannot enable MSS on XT Series devices with a CPU lower than 2.0.
Endpoints which do not support MSS receive active speaker's video from a video-enabled MSS
conference call. The received resolution could be low.
Only web collaboration is supported in this meeting type, so assure that it is enabled in the XT
Series.
Procedure
1. Access the MSS settings. From the XT Series web interface, select Administrator
Settings > Calls > Preferences > MSS. From the endpoint’s main menu, select
Configure > Advanced > Calls > Preferences > MSS.
