Cisco Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Audio Server Maintenance Manual

By default, MeetingPlace assigns meeting IDs, but you can allow users to 
assign custom or vanity IDs (custom IDs that are easy to remember). For 
example, the VP of Sales might choose a vanity ID of 7355 (sell) on the 
touch-tone phone. For reservationless meetings, each user’s profile number is 
their reservationless meeting ID. (For more information about vanity IDs, see 

Because you assign the MeetingPlace telephone number, users can dial the 
same telephone number to attend all their conferences. Some customers even 
choose easy-to-remember PBX extensions for their MeetingPlace systems, 
such as 6338 (meet) and 8255 (talk) on the touch-tone phone.

Additionally, when the meeting has finished or has not yet started, the 
MeetingPlace system delivers the prompt: “The meeting has ended” or “The 
meeting has not started.”

For reservationless meetings that have not yet started, MeetingPlace prompts 
the invited participants to record their names, and then places them in the 
waiting room. All profile users are given the option to start the meeting with 
their own MeetingPlace profile if they want.

Through a touch-tone telephone interface, MeetingPlace provides users with 
several powerful features to use during a conference, including:

•

Pressing 0 for assistance 

•

Breakout sessions and transferring between breakout sessions

•

Roll call/who is talking

•

Outdial to other users or systems

•

Hold and transfer calls from other phone lines

•

Lock meeting

•

Mute and unmute line

•

Initiating a reservationless meeting

•

End meeting

•

Depart meeting and return to the main menu

•

The roll call feature is limited to announcing a list of the first 120 
participants. This applies to roll calls enacted in session.
