Microsoft—Polycom Meeting Scenarios
1-8
Single Dial Entry Queue
An Entry Queue is used as a special routing lobby to all Meeting Rooms
and conferences, enabling one dial-in number to be used for joining all
conferences. Participants are routed to the destination conference by
entering the conference ID using DTMF codes.
In this mode, only one or a few Entry Queues are defined and added to
the Office Communicator contacts list, which keeps the list small and easy
to manage, while with Meeting Rooms, it requires each Meeting Room to
be defined and added to the contacts list resulting in a long list.
The Entry Queue is created and added to the buddy list of Office
Communicator. The target conferences (Meeting Rooms) are also created
in the MGC Manager application. This is the recommended meeting
scenario.
To start a video conference using the Meeting Room in Office
Communicator:
1 In Office Communicator, in the buddy list, select the Entry Queue
and then click Call or double-click the Entry Queue entry.
This scenario is supported only with Office Communicator. Windows Messenger
does not support DTMF codes.
