of this field, the RMX automatically replaces the number in the Reserve Resources for 
Video Participants field with the number of defined dial-out participants in the 
Permanent Conference.
Auto Terminate is disabled in Permanent Conferences.
If participants disconnect from the Permanent Conference, resources that were reserved 
for its video and audio participants are released. 
Entry QueuesConference Reservations and SIP Factories cannot be defined as Permanent 
Conferences.
Additional participants can connect to the conference, or be added by the operator, if 
sufficient resources are available.
The maximum size of the Call Detail Record (CDR) for a Permanent Conference is 1MB.
