Maintenance Manual
1. Go to Conferences and click on the name of the conference you want to lock. The Conference's Participant
List displays.
2. Click Lock conference in the top right-hand corner of the page.
ConferenceMe link
If you have the Web Conferencing feature key, participants will be able to join the conference using ConferenceMe (a
software endpoint). To join the conference using ConferenceMe, click Join.
To invite participants to join the conference using ConferenceMe, click Invite. The MCU automatically generates an
email. Alternatively, you can copy the link in the ConferenceMe link text box and paste it in to an email.
For more information on ConferenceMe, refer to Using ConferenceMe to join conferences.
Active Participants
Refer to the table below for details about the active participant list, which you can modify in the following ways:
■ You can end the conference, forcing all participants (including unicast streaming viewers) to be dropped, by
clicking End conference.
For conferences that are "scheduled" rather than "ad hoc", ending the conference in this way causes any
configured repetition to be cancelled. The ended conference would move from the "Scheduled conferences"
list to the "Completed conferences" list. The configured duration of a completed conference reflects the
actual duration of the conference rather than its original configured duration. For example, if a conference
was scheduled to run from 09:00 until 10:00 (one hour) and the conference ended at 09:25, the configured
duration would be changed to 25 minutes.
■ You can add a new H.323 or SIP video conferencing endpoint to the conference (either creating a new
endpoint or by choosing an existing one) by clicking Add participant. See Adding participants.
■ You can add a new VNC endpoint to the conference (either by creating a new endpoint or by choosing an
existing one) by clicking Add VNC. See Adding participants.
Field Field Description Usage Tips
Type Indicates whether the participant's endpoint is an H.323 , SIP, or
VNC endpoint.
Participant Displays the name of the endpoint.
The following may also be displayed:
User: <user id>
If the participant has been resolved to a particular configured
user (for instance by matching the participant's E.164 phone
number against a configured value), then the appropriate user id
will be shown here.
User names only display if the
participant list is being viewed by
an administrator, because only
administrators have access to
the configured user database.
Configuration: <name>
This indicates that this participant corresponds to a pre-defined
endpoint. The <name> shown is the endpoint's configured name.
Configured endpoint names only
display if the participant list is
being viewed by a user whose
privilege level is administrator or
conference creation and full
control; only users with these
privilege levels have access to
the configured endpoint
database.
