Chapter 4 - Setting Up Conferences

Conf. Entry
Password
Enter a numeric password that participants will use to
access the conference. If left blank, the MCU automatically
assigns a password to the conference once the
conference definition is completed (provided the MCU is
configured to automatically assign passwords).
For more details about the MCU configuration, see the
MGC Administrator’s Guide, Chapter 5, “Edit system.cfg”.
Note: This field is applicable only to IVR-enabled
conferences which are configured to prompt for the entry
password, or to conferences accessed from an Entry
Queue that use passwords as the routing method.
Web/Chairperson
Password
Enter a numeric password that participants will use to
identify themselves as the conference chairperson. This
password is only required in IVR-enabled conferences that
are configured to prompt for the chairperson password.
Note: In Standard Video conferences, this password is
only required for accessing the conference properties from
the WebCommander application.
Numeric ID Each conference must be assigned a unique identification
number. Numeric IDs (NID) are required for routing
purposes when accessing the conference from the Entry
Queue (when the selected routing method is numeric ID)
and for dialing to the conference from an H.323 endpoint,
as part of the dialing string. NID can be assigned manually
or automatically.
To manually assign the NID, enter a number in the length
(the number of digits) defined in the appropriate flag in the
“system.cfg” file. If the Numeric ID is already in use in
another Entry Queue or conference, an error message will
be displayed.
If you do not assign the Numeric ID, the MCU
automatically assigns one after the completion of the
conference definition when the conference is saved on the
MCU.
Note: If the MCU is configured to support only automatic
assignment of Numeric IDs, then this field is disabled and
the system automatically assigns a Numeric ID after you
save the conference on the MCU.
