link-local address if no DHCP server is found.

Q: Is the VB1 Teams certified?
A: Yes.
Q: Will the VB1 be certified for other UC clients?
A: Yes, we are in the process of Zoom and Google Meet certification.
Q: What does it mean for VB1 to be Microsoft Teams, Zoom and Google Certified?
A:
1. Certified products work better with respective UC software:
a. The UC software will disengage its AEC which generally results in a better audio experience.
b. The mute control on the VB1 is synchronized on the UC software so you can control mute
from the VB1 remote or the software mute button and they remain synchronized.
c. The meeting indicator on the VB1 will indicate that a UC meeting is in progress.
2. Certified products are tested and validated through a rigorous process at an approved independent
lab to ensure that they will integrate and operate seamlessly with the respective UC platform.
3. Customers prefer a certified product because it gives them the confidence that the product will meet,
or exceed, audio, video and UX performance requirements.
4. Software updates can be handled by the UC client. No need for the customer to push new software to
the VB1 independently.
