Provides secure access to conferences for guest
participants.
If a conference has a PIN set, users cannot join
the conference or change its configuration
without entering the correct PIN. Participants
joining as guests have restricted privileges. For
more information, refer to Using IDs and PINs.
Ad hoc conferences cannot be configured with
Guest numeric IDs or PINs.
Enables the MCU to attempt to register the
Numeric ID and/or Guest numeric ID with the
configured H.323 gatekeeper and/or SIP
registrar.
This setting applies to both the Numeric ID and
Guest numeric ID (if you have set both). For
more information, refer to Using IDs and PINs.
For ad hoc conferences, whether or not they are
registered with the gatekeeper depends on the
Register ad hoc conferences with gatekeeper setting on
the page.
Controls what happens to the conference when
the last participant with chairperson status leaves
the conference. The options are:
: this is the
default option. When the last participant
with chairperson status leaves the
conference, all other participants will be
disconnected
: all participants may
continue the conference until the last
one disconnects
This setting applies to scheduled conferences that
include guest participants (that is, those who have
joined the conference using the Guest numeric ID
(and PIN if one was set).
Controls "Floor and chair control" settings for
this conference. The options are:
: the
use of floor and chair controls is not
allowed in this conference
: only floor
control is allowed in this conference;
chair control is not allowed. Any
participant can 'take the floor' so long as
no other participant has currently 'taken
the floor'
: both floor
and chair control are allowed in this
conference. Any participant can take the
floor, and any chairperson participant
can take the chair so long as no other
participant has currently done so
Some H.323 endpoints support a feature known
as floor and chair control that is encompassed by
the H.243 protocol. For more information, refer
to H.243 floor and chair control.
If you change the "Floor and chair control"
setting for a scheduled conference currently
taking place, there will be no immediate effect.
That is, an existing floor or chair participant will
not have that status removed.
If the unit-wide "Floor and chair control" setting
on the Global conference settings page is set to
Disabled, it will not be possible to use floor or
chair control operations in any conference.

level. See Conference ownership for additional
information.
This setting does not apply to ad hoc conferences.
