Enable and Disable Conference Announcements

conference, and removes a conference participant, or when a new person joins the conference. Hosts can
choose to enable or disable announcements during a Skype for Business conference call.

ments.

Remove Conference Participants

A host can remove any participant, excluding the conference initiator, from the conference call.

them from the conference.

Lock and Unlock a Conference Call

Hosts can lock a conference call to prevent other people from joining the conference call without a host's
approval. When a conference is unlocked, anyone on the network can join a conference call automatically
with the conference dial-in number and PIN. When the conference is locked, a contact must wait for the main
host, the person who initiated the conference call, to admit the contact to the meeting.
