Lync Server uses a Location Policy to enable Lync 2010 clients for E9-1-1 during client registration. A Location Policy contains the settings that define how E9-1-1 will be implemented.
You can edit the global Location policy and create new tagged Location policies. A client obtains a global policy when not located within a subnet with an associated location policy, or when the client has not been directly assigned a location policy. Tagged policies are assigned to subnets or users.
To create a location policy you must use an account that is a member of the RTCUniversalServerAdmins group or is a member of the CsVoiceAdministrator administrative role or has equivalent user rights.
For a complete description of Location policies, see Location Policy Definition. Cmdlets in this procedure use a location policy defined using the following values:
Element | Value |
---|---|
EnhancedEmergencyServicesEnabled |
True |
LocationRequired |
Yes |
UseLocationForE911Only |
False |
PstnUsage |
EmergencyUsage |
EmergencyDialString |
911 |
EmergencyDialMask |
112 |
NotificationUri |
sip:security@litwareinc.com |
ConferenceUri |
sip:+14255550123@litwareinc.com |
ConferenceMode |
twoway |
For details about working with location policies, see the Lync Server Management Shell documentation for the following cmdlets:
- New-CsLocationPolicy
- Get-CsLocationPolicy
- Set-CsLocationPolicy
- Remove-CsLocationPolicy
- Grant-CsLocationPolicy
To create location policies
-
Start the Lync Server Management Shell: Click Start, click All Programs, click Microsoft Lync Server 2010, and then click Lync Server Management Shell.
Note: CsLocationPolicy will fail if the setting for PstnUsage is not already in the Global list of PstnUsages. -
Optionally, run the following cmdlet to edit the global Location Policy:
Copy Code Set-CsLocationPolicy -Identity Global -EnhancedEmergencyServicesEnabled $true -LocationRequired "yes" -PstnUsage "emergencyUsage" -EmergencyDialString "911" -ConferenceMode "twoway" -ConferenceUri "sip:+14255550123@litwareinc.com" -EmergencyDialMask "112" NotificationUri "sip:security@litwareinc.com" -UseLocationForE911Only $true
-
Run the following to create a tagged Location Policy.
Copy Code New-CsLocationPolicy -Identity Tag:Redmond - EnhancedEmergencyServicesEnabled $true -LocationRequired "yes" -UseLocationForE911Only $false -PstnUsage "EmergencyUsage" -EmergencyDialString "911" -EmergencyDialMask "112" -NotificationUri "sip:security@litwareinc.com" -ConferenceUri "sip:+14255550123@litwareinc.com" -ConferenceMode "twoway"
-
Run the following cmdlet to apply the tagged Location Policy created in step 3 to a user policy.
Copy Code (Get-CsUser | where { $_.Name -match "UserName" }) | Grant-CsLocationPolicy -PolicyName Redmond
