conference.
protected, regardless of how participants
connect, ensure you set this option.
When this option is set, participants calling into a
protected conference will be presented with PIN-
entry screen instead of the normal conference
view. The option has no effect for conferences
with no PIN set.
If this option is checked, ad hoc conferences
created using either an auto attendant or via calls
to an E.164 number associated with the MCU
service prefix will be registered individually with
the configured gatekeeper.
It may be useful to register ad hoc conferences
individually with the gatekeeper to facilitate load-
balancing between multiple MCU devices which
have registered the same prefix.
If the MCU is operating in Port reservation
mode, this option will be present but will be
ignored as ad hoc conferences are not allowed in
port reservation mode.
If this option is checked, ad hoc conferences
created using an auto attendant will be registered
individually with the configured SIP registrar.
You will need to pre-configure numeric IDs for
ad hoc conferences on the SIP registrar, or
configure the SIP registrar such that it will
recognize unknown numbers.
The numeric ID used for the conference will be
registered as the SIP registrar ID (displayed on
the Conference statistics page).
If the MCU is operating in Port reservation
mode, this option will be present but will be
ignored as ad hoc conferences are not allowed in
port reservation mode..
The timeout setting for a participant entering a
PIN for an ad hoc conference that they are
currently creating:
Participants will never be prompted to
enter a PIN when creating an ad hoc
conference.
Participants will be prompted for a PIN
when creating an ad hoc conference. If
the participant does not enter a PIN
during the configured time period, the
conference will be created without a
PIN.
Participants will be prompted for a PIN
when creating an ad hoc conference.
They must either enter a PIN to create
an ad hoc conference with a PIN or press
the hash/pound key (#) to create the
conference without a PIN.
This global setting may be useful where
participants creating ad hoc conferences rarely
need to configure a PIN.
