 and click 

.

Type  a

telephone number that participants can use to join the conference when calling 
in to the MCU via a gatekeeper or SIP registrar.

; if you are using a SIP 

registrar, check 

.

5

Ensure the

hour).

6

All other values can be left at their default settings. Refer to the online help for 
further information about the available settings.

7

Scroll down and click 

.

The conference you have created is now active (if you used the default immediate 
start time) and participants can join in one of two ways: either the MCU can call out 
to specified endpoints or endpoints can dial in. Any endpoints that have been added 
to a conference, as pre-configured participants, will be called in to the conference by 
the MCU.

There are two types of conference participant: chairperson and guest. 
IDs and PINs allow participants to connect to conferences as the correct 
participant type. Chairperson participants use the Numeric ID and 
optionally, the PIN; guest participants use the Guest numeric ID and 
optionally, the Guest PIN. For more information, refer to the online help.

Note that if you do not configure the conference to start immediately, it 
will become a scheduled conference and will be inactive until its start 
time.
