NetMeeting Application Sharing

To use NetMeeting application sharing, file transfer, and
whiteboarding, a PC must be connected to your ViewStation SP
directly or via the LAN. NetMeeting data is transmitted via the H.323
IP network. The bandwidth used is dynamically allocated so that
when NetMeeting is not sending data, the bandwidth used returns to
the video data.
Note T.120 application sharing, file transfer, and whiteboarding
are supported for NetMeeting 3.0 when used with two
ViewStations. You must have the same version of
NetMeeting installed on both ends of the videoconference.

H.323 Video Calls with NetMeeting

H.323 video calls can be placed to and from a PC using NetMeeting
2.11 or 3.0+. The line speed of a video call from NetMeeting to a
ViewStation SP depends on the bandwidth setting in NetMeeting.
The maximum line speed for NetMeeting calls is:
• Cable, xDSL, or ISDN = 128 Kbps
• LAN = 384 Kbps (maximum speed of Microsoft NetMeeting.)
Calls from a ViewStation SP to NetMeeting must be at line speeds
greater than 64 kbps. Application sharing with NetMeeting cannot be
done in an H.323 call with a ViewStation SP.
