General section
Enter text that describes the purpose of the conference.
Range: Enter up to 20 characters, or leave this field empty.
Default: Empty.
Enter the number of ports to reserve for this conference, including the
chairperson ports. The application makes sure that the total number of reserved
ports for this time period does not exceed system capacity. The system performs
validation after submission.
Range: 3 to 32.
Default: 4
Enter the user ID that will appear for this conference in billing reports and logs.
Any user in the card can be assigned as the owner. However, since this is a
permanent conference, the owner cannot modify or delete the conference,
unless they are an administrator. Thus, this field is only for billing and logging
reference.
Default: The administrator that defines the conference.
Enter the name of the chairperson for user's reference.
Range: Text up to 20 characters.
Default: Empty.
Access Numbers section
The administrator must select a DN pair from the list. The list shows
pairs of numbers in the format: [conference (chairperson)]. The
system checks the availability of the number when the form is
submitted for execution. If the number is not available, the
operation fails.
Password section
Enter an optional password for the conference. If configured, callers must enter
this password to join the conference. Available options are as follows:
• None – no password.
• Automatically assigned (the default) – The system automatically generates
the password. The administrator sets the password length from 4 to 8 digits.
• Define a password – The user defines the password. The range is 4 to 8
digits. The window shows the password as it is entered. The system does
not check the password for uniqueness. Different conferences can use the
same password.
Enter a password for chairperson authentication. This field has the same options
as the user password.
