Disconnecting Participants

When a participant does not need to continue in a conference, you can disconnecting or delete the participant.

When you disconnect a participant, the resources assigned to the participant remain allocated and the participant’s parameters remain in the system memory. This allows you to reconnect the participant if necessary.

Deleting a participant completely removes the participant’s definition from the conference and releases the resources allocated to the participant. Therefore, to reconnect a participant who was deleted from the conference, you have to re-define the parameters as if he/she were a new participant.

To disconnect a participant:

In the Monitor pane, Status pane or Browser pane, right-click the participant icon, and then click Disconnect Participant.

Alternatively, click the Participant icon, and then click the Disconnect button on the Participant Toolbar.

The participant is disconnected from the conference. The connection icon changes to disconnected and the indication Disconnected appears in the Connection column.
