The same system behavior can be applied to undefined participants, depending on the
setting of the System Flag
FORCE_ENCRYPTION_FOR_UNDEFINED_PARTICIPANT_IN_WHEN_AVAILABLE_MODE:
• When set to NO and the conference encryption in the Profile is set to “Encrypt When
Possible”, both Encrypted and Non-encrypted undefined participants can connect to the
same conferences, where encryption is the preferred setting.
• When set to YES (default), Undefined participants must connect encrypted, otherwise
they are disconnected.
For defined participants, connection to the conference is decided according to the encryption
settings in the conference Profile, the Defined Participant’s encryption settings.
For undefined participants, connection to the conference is decided according to the
encryption settings in the conference Profile, the System Flag setting and the connecting
endpoint’s Media Encryption capabilities.

Table 3-15, summarizes the connection status of participants, based on the encryption

capabilities.
