Audio Only Conferences

The MGC Manager provides various methods to set up and schedule conferences. Each method is represented in the MCU tree by a name and an icon.

After the scheduling method is determined, you must select a conference type, and determine how the participants connect to the conference:.

Participants can connect to the conference by an accessing method such as Entry Queue, conference IVR Queue, or directly and by the conferencing service level, i.e. operator attended or unattended conferencing.

When user’s move from one conference to another, they maintain the resources as allocated to them. A VTX 1000 user who moves from a VTX enabled conference to a VTX disabled conference is able to move back to the VTX enabled conference and maintain the wide band connection as initially allocated.

Reservation Templates

A Reservation template contains a partial or complete definition of a single conference. It is used to run a series of conferences that use the same parameters, such as participants, transmission rate and phone connections.

You can use a Reservation template to schedule a conference to start immediately (On Going Conference), or to start automatically at a predefined date and time (Reservation).

For information on defining a reservation template, see the MGC Manager User’s Guide Volume II, Chapter 7.

Default Reservation Templates

Five default Reservation templates are installed with the MGC Manager:

Default-Audio: is the only Reservation template designed for Audio Only conferencing. It includes the default IVR Service.
