Conferencing
Introduction
Call conferencing allows you to easily setup a conference call for up to 32 callers (license
permitting). Although many conference call services exist, it’s often easier and cheaper to
host your own audio conferences.
Conferences can be set-up ad hoc, without the need to reserve a conference room. This
has been done to simplify the set-up of conference calls.
Creating a call conference
To setup a call conference;
1.
Dial the conference extension number, by default this is 700
2.
You will be requested to enter a conference ID. This can be any number, for
example ‘100’. All callers that wish to join the conference must use the same
conference ID!
3.
If you are the first participant, the conference system will ask you to confirm creation
of the conference. Press * to confirm or # to cancel
4.
You will be asked to speak your name after the beep and press a button to continue.
5.
You will now enter the conference. If you are the first caller, you will hear music on
hold, whilst you wait for the other callers. As soon as another caller joins, his name
will be announced.
