Basic Operation
This chapter describes how to start, monitor and manage On Going
Conferences.
Reservation Templates
A Reservation template includes the conference parameters, such as the
conference media (audio, video), video session, line rate, video protocol and
other video parameters, IVR and more. The reservation can include the
conference participant parameters.
Default Reservation Templates
Five default Reservation templates are installed with the MGC Manager:
•
Default-Audio
: Audio Only with Default IVR service
•
Default_COP
: Conference On Port at 384 Kbps
•
Default_Video
: Continuous Presence Conference at 384 Kbps
•
SW CP
: Software Continuous Presence (H.323 only) at 384 Kbps
•
Video-Switch
: Video Switching at 384 Kbps
Using the default Reservation templates, you can schedule a conference to
start immediately (On Going Conference), or to start automatically at a
predefined date and time (Reservation). For details of the contents of the
default Reservation templates see “Appendix A: Default Templates”.
In order to run a
Default_Video
or
Default_COP
conference, the Video+ card
and MGC Version 5.6 or later must be installed in your system.
