the necessary conferencing resources are unavailable, it will

strive to provide the closest match to your start time and

conference size combination.

Cost Center By default, the Cost Center usually contains the Client

account reference number. The Cost Center field relates to

accounting and billing. It can contain a number of other

values, such as an End User account number, a telephone

number, or an international calling card number.

Moderated Conference You can choose to allocate Moderator status to one or several

Participants. A Moderator accesses the conference using the

Moderator passcode. Moderators can access a number of

conference features that are not available to regular

Conferees.

Multi-Site Conference MultiSite dynamically links conferences distributed over

bridges located anywhere in the world. A caller dials into a

local bridge, joins the local conference, and is connected by

audio to other local conferences that make up the global

conference. You can choose to make your conference a multi

site conference.

the last Moderator leaves the conference.

the conference. Conference lock adds an extra level of

security to a conference as it ensures that additional

Participants cannot enter the conference.

Conference Code Duration After the conference starts, you can specify the number of

minutes that the Conferee and Moderator passcodes remain

valid. If you set it to 0, the passcodes are always valid.

Conference Code Duration provides an extra level of
