Cisco Cisco TelePresence Management Suite (TMS) Version 15
Configuring Conference Settings in Cisco TMS
This section provides information on the recommended and optional conference settings that can be
configured in Cisco TMS for CMR Hybrid meetings.
Conference Connection/Ending Options
Cisco recommends configuring the Conference Connection/Ending Options in TMS so that if a meeting runs
beyond the scheduled end time, participants are warned if there are not enough resources to extend the
meeting.
To configure Conference Connection/Ending Options in Cisco TMS, do the following:
1. Go to Administrative Tools > Configuration > Conference Settings.
2. In the Conference Connection/Ending Options section, set the following options:
a. For Supply Contact Information on Extend Meeting Scheduling Conflict, select Yes.
This enables participants to see contact information when a meeting extension is not possible, due to
a booking conflict.
Note: This option is not supported by CTS, Jabber Video, and other endpoints that do not support
direct messaging from TMS.
b. For Show In-Video Warnings About Conference Ending, select Yes.
TelePresence participants will receive a text message displayed in the video by the bridge, notifying
them that the meeting will be ending.
This feature is compatible with the following bridges:
o
MCU 42xx, 45xx, 84xx, 85xx, 5xxx
o
TelePresence Server 70xx, 87xx
o
Because WebEx is a single participant connection to the MCU/TelePresence Server, the in-video
text message will only be visible to WebEx participants when a TelePresence user is the active
speaker.
c. (Optional) You can configure the length, timing and content of the in-video warnings, by setting the
following options:
i. Message Timeout (in seconds): The number of seconds that a warning message will be displayed.
Default setting: 10 seconds.
ii. Show Message X Minutes Before End: The number of minutes before the end of a meeting that the
warning message will appear.
