    About the Cisco MeetingPlace Video-Conferencing Process

How Video Conferences End 

The video conference on the Cisco IPVC MCU ends when the Cisco MeetingPlace conference ends, 
according to the standard rules for ending conferences on the Cisco MeetingPlace audio server. At this 
time, Cisco MeetingPlace Video Integration tells the Cisco IPVC MCU to terminate the video 
conference.
