Click a conference name and then click on a participant's name.

You can view diagnostics for an individual participant's connection to the MCU by choosing this option:

1.	Go to	.
2.	Click a conference name and then click on a participant's name.
3.	Click the	tab.

This page shows various low-level details pertaining to the endpoint's communication with the MCU. You are not likely to need to use any of the information on this page except when troubleshooting specific issues under the guidance of technical support.

A SIP conference participant opens a BFCP channel to the MCU and contributes a video stream, such as that supplied by a second camera or an attached PC If the MCU is configured to allow encryption, each individual conference can be configured to either require encryption or to optionally use encryption. The MCU can send either encrypted or unencrypted content to different participants in a conference depending on the capabilities of those participants endpoints allow participant to contribute content video Content channel markup also has the following characteristics channel video setting on thepage Markup of content channel video Text chat See port reservation for more information Adding a VNC participant Adding pre-configured participants Adding participants Viewing the participants listCustomizing layout views Displaying conference statistics Sending messages to all participantsConfiguring a SIP endpoint To call a participant with a SIP endpoint in to an active conferenceSee Using pane placement below layoutsconference layout see Customizing a participants participants layout displayTo return to the Custom layout page, click page to control this behavior called Loudest speaker pane placement behaviorThere is a setting on the MCUs Page The current number of streaming participants watching the conference The current number of contributing audio/video participantsThe current number of contributing audio-only participants see Conference settings Controlling the near-end camera Managing a participants audio signals Displaying diagnostics for a participant Moving a participantPre-configured participants Summary information Viewing the conference participant listSee Adding participants Customizing the user interface Selecting a custom participant view andCustomizing layout views See Adding pre-configured participants for disable option to Content channel video supportpage video codec is on theThe MCU is unable to send encrypted content video to this participant statistics for a participant chair controlchair control chair controlSee Content channel video support for additional user interfaceparticipants layout view See Customizing layoutviews audio in the conference stop mutingconnected, which have disconnected, and reasons See Customizing layout views H.323 endpoint and/or Configuring a SIP See Selecting a custom participant layoutendpoint participant parametersGo to Click a Conference name and then click on a participants nameClick the Click on one of the magnifying options to zoom the view in or outClick a Conference name and then click on a participants name layouts is automatically chosen with thefeature key is present on the MCU setting.
