R =  % of traffic used for reservationless meetings 
 
N = total number of conference ports including capacity assurance 
(CAP) 
 
30% can be substituted for standard operating percentage  
 
 
Notes:  
 
Make sure the total number of scheduling ports available 
(including overbook ports) is equal to or greater than the 
largest meeting size you expect to schedule.  
 
These guidelines are good defaults for a new system. 
However, if your system is already configured, you may 
want to keep the existing settings. 
 
Profile Number and Meeting ID Management 
Because each person’s profile number is their reservationless meeting ID, 
profile numbers cannot match existing meeting IDs when reservationless 
meetings is turned on.  
 
If you try to create a profile number that matches an existing meeting ID, 
the system notifies you of the conflict. To correct the problem, change 
the meeting ID or select another profile number for the user.  
 
End users cannot schedule meetings with a meeting ID that matches 
another profile number. 
 
Notes:  
 
When you migrate a system from standard scheduled 
meetings to combined scheduled and reservationless 
meetings, any scheduled meetings using a profile number as 
the meeting ID remain as scheduled meetings after the 
switchover. 
 
A meeting ID for a reservationless meeting is the same as 
the user’s profile ID. Because meeting IDs cannot exceed 
nine characters, make sure the profile ID of a user who can 
use the Reservationless Meetings feature does not exceed 
nine characters. When users whose profile IDs are longer 
than nine characters try to start a reservationless meeting, 
they hear the following prompt and are disconnected: “We 
are unable to start a meeting at this time. Please try again 
later.”
