Conference
types
Description Conference type features
Permanent This type of conference is always available. It
uses ports from a pool dedicated for permanent
conferences.
You can use a permanent moderated bridge as
a personal bridge. Participants are put on hold
until the moderator joins and are disconnected
when the moderator leaves. The first person to
join activates the conference in this type of
bridge.
Note: Permanent conferences must be setup
by a system administrator.
Moderated and Unmoderated - A user(s)
is designated as a moderator(s). The
moderator uses a PIN that provides full
control over the conference. You can also
enable or disable a moderator as the
dominant speaker of the conference.
Note: The moderator PIN is different from
the conference participant’s PIN.
Scheduled This type of conference exists for a specific
duration and uses a reserved number of ports
for the conference. Scheduled conferences can
handle early arrivals and over-runs and do not
require moderators.
Scheduled conferences can also have multiple
recurrences of a conference.
