Using the Meeting Password
The Meeting Password can be used for the following purposes:

dial-in password protection has been set on the MCU, all the
sites dialing into that MCU need to provide a password in order
to join the videoconference. Refer to MCU Meeting Password
Protection in Multipoint Dial-In Calls on page 199.
