MGC Manager User’s Guide - Volume I
4-13
In Figure 4-2, one or several dial-in numbers are allocated to an Entry Queue.
In addition, a password is assigned to each conference. The dial-in number
(which is usually the same for all participants regardless of the conference
they attend), and the appropriate conference password are communicated to
conference participants.
Figure 4-2: Conference Access via Entry Queue using Conference Password and
Conference IVR
When participants dial-in using the number communicated to them, they
connect to the Entry Queue where they are requested to enter the appropriate
conference password. According to this password, participants are routed to
the appropriate conference.
When an IVR Service is assigned to the conference, participants are guided to
the conference by voice prompts and are requested to enter the required
chairperson password or wait to be automatically connected to the
conference. They can also be prompted for additional information such as
their billing code.
When no IVR Service is assigned to the conference, participants are moved
directly from the Entry Queue to the conference.
