Meet-Me Conference Call
Meet-Me conferencing allows you to start or join a conference by dialing the conference number, and supports up to 32 parties.
To start a Meet-Me conference, use the following method:
1. Obtain a Meet-Me phone number from your system administrator.
2. Distribute the number to participants.
3. Obtain a dial tone, then press the more > MeetMe soft keys.
4. Dial the Meet-Me conference number. Participants can now join the conference by dialing in.
Note You hear a busy tone if you call the conference before the initiator has joined. If this happens, try your call again.
To end a Meet-Me conference, all participants must hang up. The conference does not automatically end when the conference
initiator disconnects.
Ad Hoc Conference Call
Ad hoc conferences are created when one party calls another, then either party decides to add another party to the call. This is
the default behavior. Your system can be configured so that only the conference creator can add parties to the conference.
The default is that the conference is maintained as long as three parties remain in the conference. Any party can hang up and
the conference is maintained. Your system can be configured so that the conference drops when the creator hangs up. Your
system can also be configured so that the conference drops when the last local party hangs up.
Ad Hoc conferencing supports up to eight parties.
