Chapter 2 - Defining Standard Audio Only Conferences and Reservations

Table 2-3: Conference Properties - Participants (Continued)

Field/Option

Description

 

 

Allow Undefined

Select this option to let undefined participants to

Parties

connect to the conference. When enabled, undefined

 

participants can connect to the conference until the

 

maximum allowed number of participants (Max

 

Participants) is reached, or until the MCU resources

 

allocated to the conference are used up.

 

Note: This option is automatically selected when the

 

Meet Me per Conf or Entry Queue Access options are

 

selected in the Properties - General tab.

 

 

Min Participants

Define the total number of participants for which the

 

system reserves resources. This number should include

 

defined as well as undefined participants.

 

For example, if the conference includes two defined

 

participants (dial-in or dial-out) and you want the system

 

to reserve resources for three additional undefined

 

participants, enter 5 in the Min Participants box.

 

If you enter 0, no resources will be reserved for the

 

conference. Participants will be able to connect to the

 

conference if there are available resources.

 

Note: The total number of conference participants is

 

limited by the value set in the Max Participants

 

parameter, or by the maximum number of participants

 

per conference supported by the MCU.

 

 

Max Participants

Enter the maximum number of participants who can

 

connect to the conference at one time. The maximum

 

number is calculated 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 as supported by the MCU, or the by the

 

availability of MCU resources.

 

 

Dial-Out

Select this option to designate an operator-controlled

Manually

dial-out conference connection. When this option is

 

checked, the participants remain in standby state until

 

the operator manually connects each of the dial-out

 

participants to the conference.
