Setting up a Bridge Number
One way to join a booked conference is by dialing in via a Bridge Number. Before this can take place, a
bridge number must be set up. There are several methods for setting up a bridge number, depending on
how the site's telephone system is configured with the local telephone company. We have provided one
sample method, based on an incoming call route.
