Enabling Encryption in the Profile
Encryption for the conference is in the Profile and cannot be changed once the conference is
running.
To enable encryption at the conference level:
>> In the Conference Profile Properties – Advanced dialog box, select one of the following
Encryption options:
— Encrypt All - Encryption is enabled for the conference and all conference
participants must be encrypted.
— No Encryption - Encryption is disabled for the conference.
— Encrypt when possible - enables the negotiation between the MCU and the
endpoints and let the MCU connect the participants according to their capabilities,
where encryption is the preferred setting. For connection guidelines see "Mixing
Encrypted and Non-encrypted Endpoints in one Conference” on page 4-42.
For more information about recording encrypted conferences, see "Recording Link
Encryption” on page 14-6.
Enabling Encryption at the Participant Level
You can select the encryption mode for each of the defined participants. Encryption options
are affected by the settings of the flag in the system configuration. Undefined participants
are connected with the Participant Encryption option set to Auto, inheriting the conference/
Entry Queue encryption setting.
