Chapter 3: Reserving Conferences
22 Avaya Meeting Exchange Web Portal 5.1 User Guide November 2008
Pin Mode A PIN code is an identification number that is unique to each
Participant (both Moderators and Conferees). The name of
the Participant and their unique identification number are
stored in a PIN list. When you create a new Participant, Web
Portal generates a PIN code for each new Participant and
stores it in the PIN list.
The PIN Mode options are:
● Off
● System
● Conference
If you select Off, Meeting Exchange does not use PIN codes
for the conference reservation.
If you select System PIN, Meeting Exchange grants
conference access to a Participant if they enter the correct
passcode and a PIN code which matches any entry in the
system’s PIN list, which is stored in a database table on the
bridge. Web Portal creates this system PIN list automatically
by allocating a PIN to each new Participant that you add to a
your address book.
If you select Conference PIN, the CRS automatically assigns
the following PIN list to the conference: cl_confref. This
means that Meeting Exchange only grants conference access
to Participants if they are invited to the conference. For more
information, see
Pin List on page 23.
Tip:
Tip: In a typical scenario, if you select System PIN
mode, Meeting Exchange accepts the PIN
code of anyone in the your address book. If
you select Conference, Meeting Exchange
only accepts the PIN code of the people you
have invited to the conference.
Billing Code Prompt If you select Billing Code Prompt, the conferencing server
prompts the Moderator for a billing code just before they enter
the conference. The billing code is used for accounting and
billing purposes.
