Conference Types
Conferences may be defined as one of the following types:
•
Standard - is a conference that includes all the audio and video
parameters. It is scheduled once, and when the conference ends, it is
deleted from the MCU. You can schedule a recurring reservation with the
same parameters for each of the reservation in the series. Once defined,
each of the reservations is treated as a single, unique reservation that can
be modified (except for its name) or deleted from the MCU
automatically when it ends or manually by the operator. For detailed
description of Reservations and recurring Reservations, see Chapter 9.

•
Meeting Room - is a conference without resource allocation or starting
date and time. It is defined once but can be activated many times,
remaining in a “passive” state between activations. The first participant
that connects to it activates the conference. When activated, it operates as
a Standard On Going Conference (for more details, “Viewing the
Meeting Rooms List” on page 8-3). It is one of the reservation-less
methods used in the system for on-demand conferencing.

•
Operator - is a side conference that enables the Operator to assist
participants without disturbing the on going conferences, without being
heard by other conference participants. The Operator can move a
participant from an Entry Queue, conference IVR queue, Participants
Queue, Welcome Queue (Greet and Guide), or an On Going Conference
to a private, one-on-one conversation in the Operator conference. An
Operator conference can have up to two participants only: the operator
and a participant.

Both Standard and Meeting Room conferences have the same conference
parameters. The difference between them is the method in which they are
scheduled and started, and what happens to the conference once it ends. This
chapter describes the definition of a Standard On Going conference and the
basic conference parameters.
