Conference Access - Chairperson Password Authentication Request
using WebCommander as the External Database Application
An additional security measure may be added to the Ad Hoc conference
initiation by verifying the chairperson password. In this case, standard
participants connect to the conference without entering the conference Entry
Password. Only a participant that wants to join the conference as a
chairperson is verified with the WebCommander server.
Initiating a conference using this method:
1. If the conference is started using Ad Hoc conferencing mechanism,
follow steps 1 to 7 of the Ad Hoc Conferencing using the
WebCommander Server as the External Database Application for
Conference Initiation Authentication flow.
2. The On Going conference is assigned an IVR Service that is configured
to access an External database application for Chairperson Password
authentication and with the appropriate Chairperson Password request
messages. In this case, the IVR Service does not include prompts for
conference Entry Password. When the participant is moved from the
Entry Queue to the conference IVR queue, the participant is prompted
for the Chairperson identifier key and if one is entered, the participant is
prompted for the Chairperson Password.
— If no Chairperson identifier key is entered, the participant enters the
conference as a standard, undefined participant.
Chairperson access to the conference can be validated independent of the Ad
Hoc conferencing. In such a case, each participant that identifies himself/herself
as the conference chairperson upon connection to a conference is validated
with the WebCommander server.
