Muting a Participant

5-20
Occasionally, a conference organizer may want to exclude the audio and
video channel of a particular participant from part of an On Going
Conference.
The MGC Manager enables you to mute a participant's audio and/or video
signals. A participant whose audio or video signal is muted hears and sees the
other participants. However, the other participants cannot hear or see the
muted participant.
Alternatively, participants' audio and video signals can be muted from their
own endpoints, through the endpoint's application.
To mute a participant using MGC Manager:
In the Monitor or the Status pane, right-click the participant icon, and
•
then click Mute Audio to mute the audio signal, or click Mute Video to
mute the video signal. Alternatively, click the Participant icon and then
click the Mute Audio button or Mute Video button on the Participant
Toolbar.
The menu changes to UnMute Audio, or UnMute Video (respectively).
The appropriate Audio
Video columns of the Monitor and Status.
For information about additional muting options, refer to the MGC
Manager User's Guide, Volume I, Chapter 6.
