Basic Operation
This chapter describes how to start, monitor and manage On Going
Conferences.
Reservation Templates
A Reservation template includes the conference parameters, such as the
conference media (audio, video), video session type, line rate, video
protocol and other video parameters, IVR and more. The reservation can
include the conference participant parameters.
Default Reservation Templates
Five default Reservation templates are installed with the MGC Manager:
• Default-Audio: Audio Only with Default IVR service
• Default_COP: Conference On Port at 384 Kbps
• Default_Video: Continuous Presence Conference at 384 Kbps
• SW CP: Software Continuous Presence (H.323 only) at 384 Kbps
• Video-Switch: Video Switching at 384 Kbps
Using the default Reservation templates, you can schedule a conference to
start immediately (On Going Conference), or to start automatically at a
predefined date and time (Reservation). For details of the default
Reservation templates parameters, see “Appendix A: Default Templates”.
In order to run a Default_Video or Default_COP conference, the Video+ card
and MGC Version 5.6 or later must be installed in your system.
