Basic Operation
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 type, line rate, video protocol and other video parameters, IVR and more. The reservation can include the conference participant parameters.
Default Reservation Templates
Five default Reservation templates are installed with the MGC Manager:
•
•Default_COP: Conference On Port at 384 Kbps
•Default_Video: Continuous Presence Conference at 384 Kbps
•SW CP: Software Continuous Presence (H.323 only) at 384 Kbps
•
In order to run a Default_Video or Default_COP conference, the Video+ card and MGC 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). For details of the default Reservation templates parameters, see “Appendix A: Default Templates”.
