System Overview; Icb Conference Feature Summary; Procedure - Nortel 2100 Fundamentals

The ICB communicates with the system software by emulating a digital
line card (XDLC), which allows existing software to control the operation of
the ICB. Configure each ICB port as an Automatic Call Distribution (ACD)
M2616 digital telephone set.

.
Each card (that is, the primary and secondary) has its own set of users.
There is no "common list" for both cards.
To schedule a conference, the user logs into the card in which their
account is defined. If the user has two accounts, one on each card,
they must try each card separately to find available resources for the
conference. There is no automatic pooling between cards.
A user, super-user, or executive-user can have accounts on many cards
at a company (that is, a customer can have one person who administers
multiple bridges for their company).
Dual-card conferences can only be scheduled by users on the primary
card.

Offers customized conference-specific greetings.
Enables users to acquire and release chairperson control while in a
conference.

conference.

Supports multiple conferences simultaneously.
Provides chairperson commands during an active conference.
