Ad Hoc Conferencing and
External Database
Authentication
The RMX Ad Hoc conferencing feature enables participants to start
ongoing conferences on-the-fly, without prior definition when dialing an
Ad Hoc-enabled Entry Queue. The created conference parameters are
taken from the Profile assigned to the Ad Hoc-enabled Entry Queue.
Ad Hoc conferencing is available in two modes:
•
Ad Hoc Conferencing without Authentication
Any participant can dial into an Entry Queue and initiate a new
conference if the conference does not exist. This mode is usually used
for the organization’s internal Ad Hoc conferencing.
• Ad Hoc conferencing with external database authentication
In this mode, the participant’s right to start a new conference is
validated against a database.
The external database application can also be used to validate the
participant’s right to join an ongoing conference. Conference access
authentication can be:
• Part of the Ad Hoc conferencing flow where the participants must be
authorized before they can enter the conference created in the Ad
Hoc flow.
• Independent of Ad Hoc conferencing where conference access is
validated for all conferences running on the MCU regardless of the
method in which the conference was started.
