Calling participants in to a conference

To call participants in to a conference:

1In the web interface of the MCU, go to Conferences and click on the name of an active conference.

2On the Participants tab, click Add participant to call out to an H.323 or SIP endpoint.

3In the Address field:

where there is no H.323 gatekeeper or SIP registrar, type the IP address, host name, or SIP URI of an accessible endpoint on your network

if you are using an H.323 gatekeeper, enter the number registered with the gatekeeper for the required endpoint

if you are using a SIP registrar, enter the number registered with the SIP registrar for the required endpoint

4Leave the other fields as their default values and click Call endpoint. The MCU automatically connects to the endpoint.

5If the endpoint is not configured to automatically answer calls, accept the call on the endpoint.

Calling in to a conference

Participants can call in to conferences in either one of two ways:

if you have given the conference a numeric identifier and you are using an H.323 gatekeeper or SIP registrar, tell participants to dial the numeric identifier from their endpoint to join that conference

participants can dial the IP address of the MCU to access the auto attendant of the MCU. Participants will see a menu of available conferences on their video screen and will hear instructions
