Max number of
Participants

Enter the maximum number of participants that can
connect to the conference at one time, taking into
account both the defined and undefined participants.
Use this option to save resources for other
conferences.
When set to Auto, the maximum number of
participants is determined by the maximum number of
participants in a conference supported by the MCU, or
the availability of the MCU resources.
Note:
During an On Going conference, you can also limit the
number of participants by preventing additional dial-in
participants from connecting to the conference by
locking the conference by clicking the Lock
conference icon from the Toolbar.

Audio Mix
Depth

Indicates the number of concurrent voices that can be
heard. The value 3 indicates that the three loudest
participants speaking at the same time will be heard.

Encryption

Encryption is a process of disguising information into
“ciphertext,” or data that will be unintelligible to an
unauthorized person attempting access to the media.
In the WebCommander the behavior of the system at
a conference and participant level is dependant on
MCU system.cfg flag settings set in the MGC
Manager.
Encryption supports all types of audio and video
conferences including ISDN and IP participants.

Label

Labels are used to filter Conference templates. They
are defined in the MGC Web Server Manager
application. You can assign a label to the conference
by selecting it from the drop-down list.

Audio Algorithm

In Audio Only conferences, the default algorithm is
G.711 (56).
In a VOIP (Audio Only, IP Only) conference, you can
choose between the default G.711 (56) and the G.729/
G.723.1 (8)
audio algorithm.
