Table 11-2: Basic Connection Parameters for Video ISDN/ATM//MPI

Option	Description

Connection	Select the appropriate connection type from the
	drop-down list.
	You can set up conference dialing according to the
	following connection types:
	• Dial-in- the participant phones the MCU at
	conference time. You inform the participant of
	the MCU’s phone number. When selecting this
	option, the Meet Me Per options are enabled.
	• Dial-out- the MCU calls the participant at
	conference time. You must enter the participant’s
	phone number in the Party Phones area when
	defining the participant.
	• Direct - the participants are connected directly to
	the MCU through a leased line. No dialing is
	required for direct connections. This option is
	relevant to participants connecting via ISDN or
	MPI networks only.

Party Phones	This field appears when dial-out is selected under
	Connections, or when MCU is selected under Meet
	Me Per.
	Enter the participant’s phone number (including
	country and area codes when required) to be dialed
	by the MCU when connecting the participant to the
	conference. Add a semicolon (;) between numbers
	when several numbers are to be assigned to a
	participant. For example, 9251111;925112;….;xxxx.
	If Meet Me Per MCU option is selected, type the
	phone number that the participant is identified by
	(CLI number). This number is used by the MCU to
	route the caller to the appropriate conference.
