Entry Queues, Ad Hoc Conferences and SIP Factories

Entry Queue Definitions Parameters

Option

Description

 

 

Entry Queue Mode

Select the mode for the Entry Queue

 

 

 

Standard Lobby (default) - When selected, the Entry Queue is used as a

 

routing lobby to access conferences. Participants connect to a single-dial lobby

 

and are routed to their destination conference according to the Conference ID

 

they enter.

 

 

 

Ad Hoc - Select this option to enable the Ad Hoc option for this Entry Queue. In

 

this mode, when the participant enters the target conference ID the system

 

checks whether a conference with that ID is already running on the MCU. If not,

 

the system automatically creates a new ongoing conference with that ID.

 

 

 

IVR Only Service Provider - When selected, designates this Entry Queue as a

 

special Entry Queue that provides IVR Services to SIP calls on behalf of the

 

RealPresence DMA system. The IVR Only Service Provider Entry Queue does

 

not route the SIP calls to a target conference. Instead the RealPresence DMA

 

system handles the call. For more details, see IVR Provider Entry Queue

 

(Shared Number Dialing).

 

 

 

External IVR Control - IVR Services can be controlled externally from an

 

application server (such as the DMA) supporting the MCCF-IVR (Media Control

 

Channel Framework-Interactive Voice Response) package.

 

When selected, the connection process of the participant to the conference via

 

the Virtual Entry Queue is controlled and managed by an external IVR service of

 

an application server (for example, DMA).

 

 

Entry Queue IVR Service

The default Entry Queue IVR Service is selected. If required, select an alternate

 

Entry Queue IVR Service, which includes the required voice prompts, to guide

 

participants during their connection to the Entry Queue.

 

 

Cascade

Set this field to None for all Entry Queues other than cascading.

 

If this Entry Queue is used to connect dial-in cascaded links, select Master or

 

Slave depending on the Master/Slave relationship in the Cascading topology.

 

Set this field to Master if:

 

The Entry Queue is defined on the MCU on level 1 and the dialing is done

 

from level 2 to level 1.

 

The Entry Queue is defined on the MCU on level 2 and the dialing is done

 

from level 3 to level 2.

 

Set this field to Slave if the Entry Queue is defined on the MCU on level 2

 

(Slave) and the dialing is done from MCU level 1 to level 2.

 

 

Enable ISDN/PSTN

Select this check box to allocate dial-in numbers for ISDN/PSTN connections.

Access

To define the first dial-in number using the default ISDN/PSTN Network Service,

 

leave the default selection. When the Entry Queue is saved on the MCU, the

 

dial-in number will be automatically assigned to the Entry Queue. This number

 

is taken from the dial-in numbers range in the default ISDN/PSTN Network

 

Service.

 

 

ISDN/PSTN Network

The default Network Service is automatically selected. To select a different

Service

ISDN/PSTN Network Service in the service list, select the name of the Network

 

Service.
