Basic Operations

This chapter describes how to start, monitor and manage On Going

Conferences.

Reservation Templates

A Reservation template includes the conference parameters, such as the conference media (audio, video), video session, line rate, video protocol and other video parameters, IVR Service and more. The reservation can include the conference participant parameters.

Default Reservation Templates

There are five default Reservation templates installed with the MGC

Manager:

•Video-Switch: Video Switching at 384 Kbps

•SW CP: Software Continuous Presence (IP) at 384 Kbps

•Default-Audio: Audio Only with default IVR Service

•Default_Video: Continuous Presence Conference at 384 Kbps

•Default_COP: Conference On Port at 384 Kbps

In order to run a Default_Video or Default_COP conference, the Video+ card and MCU Version 5.6 or later must be installed in your system.

Using the default Reservation templates, you can schedule a conference to start immediately (On Going Conference), or to start automatically at a predefined date and time (Reservation).
