System Parameters 
The System Parameters window defines whether you are using DID/DDI 
meeting access. Additionally, to eliminate clock drift on your MeetingPlace 
system you can enter the network address of an NTP (network time protocol) 
server from this window.

System Parameters Fields 
 
1. Allow vanity mtg IDs? 
Whether users are allowed to assign custom IDs to the meetings they 
schedule. System managers can always assign vanity meeting IDs, no matter 
how this parameter is set. 
If your system is configured for DID/DDI access, use this parameter when 
you have set the “DID meeting access” parameter to Yes and you want users 
to be able to assign vanity meeting IDs to DID/DDI meetings. 
 
Tip: To prevent users from assigning custom meeting IDs (such as 1234), 
set this parameter to No. MeetingPlace then assigns a randomly generated 
ID to all meetings scheduled from then on. Although vanity meeting IDs are 
easy for users to recognize and identify, they also make gaining 
unauthorized access by hackers or uninvited participants easier. 
 
When this parameter is set to Yes, you can restrict groups or individual users 
from assigning vanity IDs to meetings that are scheduled by phone. In the 
Configure tab, select User Profiles or User Groups. For the Can Chg Mtg ID 
via Phone field, choose No. User profiles inherit the group setting, but you 
can change the setting for individual users.
