Chapter 3: Starting Collaborate Desktop
IN THIS CHAPTER
Collaborate Desktop's Start procedure varies, depending on whether or not your system will
be in a videoconferencing network managed by ClearOne’s Collaborate Central, or if your
computer has more than one IP address defined in its Network configuration.
If registered to a Collaborate Central, Collaborate Central provides a number of functions
and features that are not available if the system logs in to a non-ClearOne gatekeeper or
operates in a stand-alone state. These features include, call forwarding, call transfer, call
pickup, and inviting additional users to ad-hoc conferences. For more information about
these functions, see the Collaborate Desktop Online Help.
This chapter explains how to access the Collaborate Desktop system and includes the
following sections:
 All Collaborate Desktop Systems
 System Managed by Collaborate Central
ALL COLLABORATE DESKTOP SYSTEMS
