Participant Groups

A group is a predefined collection of participants. A group provides an easy way to manage
clusters of participants that are in the same organizational structure and to connect a
combination of endpoints to a conference. For example, if you frequently conduct
conferences with the marketing department, you can create a group called "Marketing
Team" that contains the endpoints of all members of the marketing team.
Groups can contain participants and sub-groups. You can define up to ten levels in the
"Main" group.
