Chapter 4 - Setting Up Conferences
4-34
Defining On Going Conferences
You can reserve a conference in advance or request to start a conference as
soon as possible. A conference can be attended or unattended.
An On Going Conference is a conference that starts immediately or when the
scheduled reservation date and time is reached and the conference is
automatically activated.
Preparatory Tasks
Before you start setting up a new conference, it is recommended to check the
dial-in numbers defined in the ISDN Network Service, the IP Service Prefix
defined in the IP Network Service (for H.323 dial in) and the participants’
endpoint connection parameters (dial number and video capabilities).
Defining a New Audio Only Conference
For the description of the Audio Only conferences definition, see the MGC
Manager User’s Guide, VoicePlus Edition, Chapter 2, “Defining Standard
Audio Only Conferences and Reservations”.
• Defining new Meet Me per Conferences and Meeting Rooms is described in
Chapter 7.
• Defining new Entry Queues and Operator conferences is described in
Chapter 8.
• Defining new Reservations is described in Chapter 9.
If the Audio Look and Feel mode is set for the system, the conference properties
and defaults are automatically set to Audio Only and the video parameters are
hidden. The Audio Look and Feel mode is set in the MGC Manager Options
menu. For more details, refer to the MGC Administrator’s Guide, Chapter 5.
If Audio Look and Feel is not set for the conference, selecting Audio Only in the
Media
box causes the conference properties to display only audio related
parameters and hide the video properties as in Audio Look and Feel mode.
