Using Auto-Start or Manual Start for a Conference

Setting the Default Connection Speed for a Call

Presence mode. The greater number of small video windows that are used, the more video
resources required on the MCU.
When Auto-Start is selected in the Advanced Settings dialog box, the call will be dialed
automatically at the start time of the videoconference, or a little before, based on any
required setup minutes.
If you prefer to start conferences manually at the time of the conference, uncheck this
setting. However, if you uncheck it, you must be sure to start it manually at the
scheduled time. Otherwise, the conference will not launch.
The speed set in the Advanced Settings dialog box will determine the speed at which
the endpoints will communicate for both point-to-point and multipoint conferences. If a
higher speed is selected than can be supported by an endpoint, the speed for that
endpoint will be reduced, but it will remain at the default connection speed for the
endpoints that can match it. If the calls are placed via a multipoint-capable codec, the
behavior depends on the capabilities of that codec.
In the case of ISDN dialing, if the dial speed is higher than number of channels defined
in the H320 service of the endpoint, you will receive a warning about exceeding ISDN
resources. If that occurs, simply lower the dial speed to less than or equal to the ISDN
capability of the endpoint
Higher speed is important when you want high quality video in a meeting. However,
because higher speed uses more bandwidth, scheduling a meeting with higher speed
may limit the number of conferences that can be reserved at one time.
