Direct Dial-In Access
Participants can dial directly into the conference using the following methods:
• Using the MCU dial-in number and defining the participants prior to the
conference start. Participants are provided with the MCU dial-in number.
When they connect to the MCU they are routed to their corresponding
conference according to their Calling Line Identifier (CLI) number.
• Meet Me Per Conference - Assigning a dial-in number to each
conference and defining the conference as Meet Me, allowing undefined
participants to connect to the conference.
Figure 2-1: Direct Conference Access
The meeting organizer or operator assigns a dial-in phone number to each
conference designated as a Meet Me Per Conference or Meeting Room. The
conference dial-in number is given to all the conference participants who use
it to directly connect to the conference. Using this mode, any participant who
dials the conference number can connect to the conference until all the MCU
resources are utilized or the maximum number of participants is reached.
The Meet Me Per conference is the basis for the Meeting Rooms definition.
