Guidelines for Setting the Video Layout in Cascading Conferences

To ensure that conferences can be cascaded and video can be viewed in all conferences the following guidelines are recommended:

●The same version installed on all MCUs participating the cascading topology

●The same license installed on all MCUs participating the cascading topology

●Same Conference Parameters are defined in the Profile of the conferences participating in the cascading topology

Conference line rates should be identical

Content rate should be identical

Same encryption settings

●DTMF codes should be defined with the same numeric codes in the IVR services assigned to the cascading conferences

●DTMF forwarding is suppressed

●The video layout of the link is set to 1x1 by the appropriate system flag.

●Cascaded links in 1x1 video layout are in SD resolution.

●When the Mute Participants Except Lecturer option is enabled in the Conference Profile, all participants (including the link participants) except the lecturer are muted. Only the lecturer is not muted.

●Gathering is not supported in Cascading Conferences.
