This article contains general explanations about where UCMA should be installed and how "Trusted Application" works.
UCMA
UCMA is a software component by Microsoft that we install on certain servers (typically Access Portal web server).
This component allows for developers and 3rd party apps to get access and take control over certain aspects of Microsoft's Enhanced Presence information, instant messaging, telephone and video calls, and audio/video conferencing.
This component together with the "CsTrustedApplciation" configurations allow us to perform manipulations and use the SfB/Lync environment in order to do the following:
- Use Contact list information pulled from SfB environment to set certain Ethical wall policies that apply according to contact list memebers
- Send IMs to users and admins from the local SfB environment in order to notify them about Ethical wall/DLP/etc. actions that were performed.
This is an important part of our product and guidance about it's installation and configuration can be found in the installer guide, Ethical wall installation guide and DLP installation guide.
Trusted Application
As part of the installation of the UCMA certain configuration in the SfB/Lync topology. These configurations allow the environment to identify and authenticate the 3rd party application that are trying to access them (Access Portal Web App/SIP Filter).
In order to view this what is already configured with this configuration the following commands can be used:
Get-CsTrustedApplicationPool
Get-CsTrustedApplication
Get-CsTrustedApplicationEndpoint
