Ad Hoc Conferences
Numeric ID In Ad Hoc Conferencing, the Numeric ID is used for
authentication purposes. When a participant
connects to an Ad Hoc-enabled Entry Queue, which
is configured to access the WebCommander as the
external database application, the Numeric ID is
used to verify whether the participant is authorized to
start a new on going conference.
If the Numeric ID exists in the WebCommander
database, a new conference is started and this
Numeric ID is assigned to the conference. The
Participant who has started the On Going
conference is automatically created and added to
the conference.
If the Numeric ID does not exist in the external
database, the participant is disconnected from the
MCU.
