IVR-Enabled Conferencing
Interactive Voice Response (IVR) is a software module that automates the connection process and lets
participants perform various operations during ongoing conferences. The participants use their endpoints'
keypads, remote controls and touch control devices to interact with the conference's menu-driven scripts
using DTMF codes.
Operations that can be performed by participants or chairpersons during a conference include:
● Initiate Polycom's Click&View™ application to change the local screen layout (AVC-based
conferencing).
● Mute or unmute the participant's audio channel.
● Adjust the participant's broadcasting and listening audio volume (AVC-based conferencing).
● Play the Help menu.

● Request a Roll Call and stop the Roll Call names review (AVC-based conferencing)
● Secure and unsecure a conference.
● Request individual and conference assistance (CP conferences).
● Manually terminate the conference.
