Conference Reservations
A Reservation is a conference scheduled to start later. Reservations enable
you select the conference start date and time or define a recurrent
reservation.
Scheduling a conference reservation involves defining the conference
parameters, assigning the conference to an MCU, setting the date and time at
which the conference is to start and the duration of the conference. How you
schedule a conference reservation depends on a number of factors, as shown
in Table 9-1.
The MGC Manager allows you to set up and run conferences in mixed
networks: H.323, SIP, ISDN, T1-CAS, ATM, and MPI (serial connection). The
type of network used is defined individually for each participant in the
conference.
