Chapter 4 - Operations Performed During On Going Conferences
4-72
Managing Secure Mode Conferences
In the Secure mode, joining the conference, monitoring or controlling the
conference in any way, is denied to outside participants, including operators.
However, operators can terminate the conference even in this mode. In
addition, operators cannot view the participants list or any conference
properties while the conference is in the Secure mode. Chairpersons can
enable or disable the Secure mode for an On Going Conference, using the
appropriate DTMF codes on the touch-tone telephone. While the conference
is in a Secure mode, the chairperson and conference participants can perform
various operations using the appropriate DTMF codes, such as voting or
question-and-answer sessions. These operations will not be displayed in the
MGC Manager monitoring panes. Once the chairperson secures or unsecures
the conference, an appropriate voice message is played.
In a secure conference, operator cannot perform the following actions:
• Join or attend the conference
• View and control the participants of the conference
• View and monitor the conference properties
• Implement Voting
• Initiate an Invite session
Roll Call
When the Roll Call option is enabled in the IVR Service assigned to the On
Going Conference, the chairperson can request the system to play the names
of all connected conference participants at the beginning of the conference, or
at any time during the conference. The IVR system then plays the recorded
list of conference attendees, one after the other, in the order that they entered
the conference. The recordings are played to all the conference participants.
Roll Call Guidelines
• The Roll Call Confirmation message is not played to the participant
when the flag in the “system.cfg” ROLL_CALL_CONFIRMATION =
The voice message is played only if it is configured in the IVR Message Service
and if the appropriate audio file has been downloaded to the Audio card.
