Locking and Unlocking a Conference

You can lock or unlock On Going Conferences and thus control access of undefined dial-in participants to these conferences. The Lock/Unlock option is dynamic and can be applied any time before or during the conference. This feature is used to:

•Limit the number of undefined dial-in participants connecting to the conference in order to save resources.

•Prevent other participants from connecting to the conference once all the required participants have already been connected.
