Chapter 4 - Setting Up Conferences

In addition, an IVR Service may be assigned to the conferences accessed
from the Entry Queue.
Figure 4-1: Conference Access via Entry Queue using Numeric ID and Conference
IVR
In Figure 4-1, one or several dial-in numbers are allocated to an Entry Queue.
In addition, a numeric ID is assigned to each conference and a conference
password and chairperson password may be defined. The dial-in number
(which is usually the same for all participants regardless of the conference
they attend), and the appropriate conference numeric IDs are communicated
to conference participants. When participants dial-in using the number
communicated to them, they connect to the Entry Queue where they are
requested to enter the appropriate conference Numeric ID. According to this
conference ID, participants are routed to the appropriate conference.
When an IVR Service is assigned to the conference, participants are guided to
the conference by voice prompts and are requested to enter the required
(conference/chairperson) password. They can also be prompted for additional
information such as their billing code.
