Meeting Rooms - Polycom RealPresence 800s Administrator's Manual

Meeting Rooms

A Meeting Room is a conference saved on the MCU in passive mode, without using any of
the system resources. A Meeting Room is automatically activated when the first participant
dials into it. Meeting Rooms can be activated as many times as required. Once activated, a
Meeting Room functions as any ongoing conference.
The conferencing Mode of the Meeting Room is determined by the Profile assigned to it.
In SVC Conferencing Mode, dial-in is available as follows:
•
•
•
In AVC CP Conferences, dial-out participants can be connected to the conference
automatically, or manually. In the automatic mode the system calls all the participants one
after the other. In the manual mode, the Collaboration Server user or meeting organizer
instructs the conferencing system to call the participant. Dial-out participants must be
defined (mainly their name) and added to the conference. This mode can only be selected at
the conference/Meeting Room definition stage and cannot be changed once the conference
is ongoing.
A Meeting Room can be designated as a Permanent Conference. For more information see
"Permanent Conference" on page 3-54.
The maximum of number of Meeting Rooms that can be defined is 1000.
The system is shipped with four default Meeting Rooms as shown in Table 6-1.
