Conference Templates

Conference Templates enable administrators and operators to create, save,

schedule and activate identical conferences.

A Conference Template:

• Saves the conference Profile.

• Saves all participant parameters including their Personal Layout and

Video Forcing settings.

• Simplifies the setting up Telepresence conferences where precise

participant layout and video forcing settings are crucial.

• The maximum number of templates is:

—RMX 2000 — 100

—RMX 4000 — 200

• A maximum of 200 participants can be saved in a Conference Template

when the RMX is in MPM+ mode. When the RMX is in MPM

(RMX 2000) mode, the maximum is 80 participants.

• If the RMX is switched to from MPM+ mode to MPM (RMX 2000)

mode, conference templates may include more participants than the

allowed maximum in MPM mode.

Trying to start a Conference Template that exceeds the allowed

maximum number of participants will result in participants being

disconnected due to resource deficiency.

• If the Profile assigned to a conference is deleted while the conference

is ongoing the conference cannot be saved as a template.

• A Profile assigned to a Conference Template cannot be deleted. The

system does not permit such a deletion.

• Profile parameters are not embedded in the Conference Template, and

are taken from the Profile when the Conference Template becomes an

ongoing conference. Therefore, any changes to the Profile parameters
