Exporting and Importing Conference Profiles

Conference Profiles can be exported from one MCU and imported to multiple MCUs in your environment, enabling you to copy the Conference Profiles definitions to other systems. This can save configuration time and ensures that identical settings are used for conferences running on different MCUs. This is especially important in environments using cascading conferences that are running on different MCUs.

Guidelines for Exporting and Importing Conference Profiles

●Only Collaboration Server system administrators can export and import Conference Profiles. Operators are only allowed to export Conference Profiles.

●You can select a single, multiple, or all Conference Profiles to be exported.

●Conference Templates and their related Conference Profiles can be exported and imported simultaneously using the Conference Templates export and import function. For more information, see Exporting and Importing Conference Templates.

Exporting Conference Profiles

Conference Profiles are exported to a single XML file that can be used to import the Conference Profiles on multiple MCUs. Using the Export Conference Profile feature, you can export all or selected Conference Profiles from an MCU.
