Support for Custom Session Types
With WebEx WBS29 or later, custom session types can be created which allow customers to restrict
WebEx features for a specific group of users. For example, you could create a custom session type to
disable recording, chat or annotation for a certain group of users. The Default TelePresence Session Type
(which can be set to a custom session type) is used by default when a meeting organizer schedules a
meeting. If the meeting organizer is scheduling the meeting using the WebEx and TelePresence Integration
to Outlook plug-in, they will be able to select a different custom session type, if it has been configured at the
Site Administration level. The WebEx site administrator can selectively decide which users have access to
specific custom session types. When a meeting organizer schedules using Cisco TMS, Smart Scheduler or
the WebEx Scheduling Mailbox, the Default TelePresence Session Type is always used. To enable custom
session types for your WebEx site, contact WebEx cloud services. Once enabled, you can create a custom
session type by going to the left navigation bar under
WebEx features for a specific group of users. For example, you could create a custom session type to
