Participants

connect to the conference at one time, taking into

 

account both the defined and undefined participants.

 

Use this option to save resources for other

 

conferences.

 

When set to Auto, the maximum number of

 

participants is determined by the maximum number of

 

participants in a conference supported by the MCU, or

 

the availability of the MCU resources.

 

Note:

 

During an On Going conference, you can also limit the

 

number of participants by preventing additional dial-in

 

participants from connecting to the conference by

 

locking the conference by clicking the Lock

 

conference icon from the Toolbar.

 

 

Audio Mix

Indicates the number of concurrent voices that can be

Depth

heard. The value 3 indicates that the three loudest

 

participants speaking at the same time will be heard.

 

 

Encryption

Encryption is a process of disguising information into

 

“ciphertext,” or data that will be unintelligible to an

 

unauthorized person attempting access to the media.

 

In the WebCommander the behavior of the system at

 

a conference and participant level is dependant on

 

MCU system.cfg flag settings set in the MGC

 

Manager.

 

Encryption supports all types of audio and video

 

conferences including ISDN and IP participants.

 

 

Label

Labels are used to filter Conference templates. They

 

are defined in the MGC Web Server Manager

 

application. You can assign a label to the conference

 

by selecting it from the drop-down list.

 

 

Audio Algorithm

In Audio Only conferences, the default algorithm is

 

G.711 (56).

 

In a VOIP (Audio Only, IP Only) conference, you can

 

choose between the default G.711 (56) and the G.729/

 

G.723.1 (8) audio algorithm.
