Figure 8-2: Conference Access via Entry Queue using the Conference Password
Conference Entry
When no IVR Service is assigned to the conference, or if the assigned IVR
service is not configured to prompt for passwords, participants are moved
directly from the Entry Queue to the conference.
When an IVR Service that is configured to prompt for passwords is assigned
to the conference, participants are guided to the conference by voice prompts.
For Conference Numeric ID routing, the participants are requested to enter
the target conference/chairperson password. They can also be prompted for
additional information such as their billing code. For password routing
participants may be requested to enter the required chairperson password or
wait to be automatically connected to the conference. They can also be
prompted for additional information such as their billing code.
