Figure 5-3: Ad Hoc Conferencing with Conference Numeric ID and Chairperson Password Authentication

To enable this workflow, the same components as for the Ad Hoc Conferencing using WebCommander Server as the External Database Application for Conference Initiation Authentication workflow must be defined in the system with the following additions:

•The IVR Service assigned to the destination conference must be configured to check the external database server for the Chairperson Password for each participant connecting to the conference as a chairperson. If the conference is created via Ad Hoc-enabled Entry Queue, the IVR Service must be assigned to the Profile used for the Ad Hoc Conferencing.

•The WebCommander Server Manager-Users table must include the Participant PIN Code for each user. The Participant Information and VIP state may also be defined.

The IVR Service can be set to send queries to the external database application server either for Conference Entry Password or Chairperson Password authentication. The MCU can query only one password per conference.
