Table 3-3: Participant Defaults - Settings1 Parameters

Option	Description
Name	Enter the participant’s name using numerals and
	characters only. You must give each participant a
	distinct name.
Interface Type	Select the Interface Type. Select ISDN if the
	participant connects via ISDN lines, T1-CASif the
	participant connects via T1-CAS lines, ATM if the
	participant is using the ATM network, H.323 or SIP
	if the participant is connected via LAN, and MPI if
	the participant is connected via serial connection.
	Note: SIP participants require the IP+ card series,
	hardware version 4.24 or above.
Connection Type	Select the appropriate connection type from the
	drop-down list.
	The MGC WebCommander allows you to set up
	conference dialing according to three connection
	types:
	Dial-in- The participant phones the MCU at
	conference time. You inform the participant of the
	MCU’s phone number. When selecting this option,
	the Meet Me Per options are enabled.
	Do not select this option if your default
	participant’s connection type is T1-CAS as only
	undefined T1-CAS participants can connect to
	conferences.
	Dial-out- The MCU calls the participant at
	conference time. The participant’s phone number
	may be entered later, when setting up the
	conference.
	If the Manual Dial Out option in the Schedule tab
	of the conference settings is cleared, the MCU
	automatically calls the participant at conference
	time. If this option is checked, the operator calls
	the participant.
	Direct - The participants are connected directly to
	the MCU through an ISDN leased line. No dialing
	is required for direct connections.
