extension, Cisco MeetingPlace reschedules the port allocation based upon the current active number 
of ports, regardless of the original requested number of ports. For example, a meeting organizer 
initially schedules a meeting for ten ports, but only eight people show up.  When the meeting runs 
long, it is auto extended. The port reservation is reduced to eight ports instead of the original ten.  
Capacity management uses this last reported value for graphing the requested ports. 
The combination of these two effects can produce significant deviations between the graphed Capacity 
Management charts and actual usage.  For precise meeting statistics, we recommend that you generate a 
Cisco MeetingPlace report (see Chapter 5, “Reports”). 
 
8.3  MeetingPlace Flex Menus 
You can customize the top-level touchtone menu trees that callers use to access their meetings by using 
Flex Menu applications. Flex Menu applications provide quick access to do any of the following: 
  Join meetings 
  Listen to recordings 
  Access one or all voice comments 
  Access one or all attachments 
You can also incorporate standard MeetingPlace menu trees into your Flex Menu applications, such as 
the standard Attend, Schedule, and MeetingNotes branches. 
 
For example, you could define a Flex Menu application to play the following top-level prompts: 
 
Welcome to MeetingPlace 
 
To attend today’s brokerage call, press 1 
 
To listen to the recording of yesterday’s brokerage call, press 2 
 
To review analyst meetings, press 3 
 
For other options, press 4 
Note: The Welcome to MeetingPlace prompt cannot be changed. If you want to customize this prompt, 
contact Cisco MeetingPlace Customization Services. 
 
MeetingPlace can support multiple Flex Menu applications in a single system. You assign Flex Menu 
applications on a port group basis. As such, MeetingPlace can play different menus to parties depending 
on the port group that users dial into.

following:
