Cisco Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Audio Server Installation Guide

For the Overbook Ports field, keep the following points in mind:

•

MeetingPlace uses the following calculation:

Number of conference port licenses installed

– Number of floating ports
– Number of contingency ports
+ Number of overbooked ports

   

= Maximum number of ports that can be scheduled

•

On a system with both reservationless and scheduled meetings, use the 
following guidelines to configure your system. These guidelines maximize 
the port utilization and capacity of your system.

•

R = percentage of traffic used for reservationless meetings

•

N = total number of conference ports including capacity assurance 
(CAP)

•

30% can be substituted for standard operating percentage

•

Make sure the total number of scheduling ports available (including 
overbook ports) is equal to or greater than the largest meeting size you 
anticipate scheduling. For a new system, these guidelines are good 
defaults, but keep the current settings for a system that is already 
configured.
