                                VECTOR DIRECTORY NUMBER
    
                             MEET-ME CONFERENCE PARAMETERS
           Conference Access Code: 937821
            Conference Controller: 80378

                  Route-to Number: 
    
  4. Enter a conference access code.

    If you do not want an access code, leave the field blank. Once an access code is assigned, an asterisk displays in this field for subsequent change, display, or remove operations by all users except the init super user login.

    Security alert:

    Always assign an access code to a Meet-me Conference VDN.

  5. Enter a conference controller extension.

    If an extension number is entered, a user at that extension can change the access code for the Meet-me Conference VDN using a feature access code. If this field is blank, only a station user that is assigned with console permissions can change the access code for the Meet-me Conference VDN using a feature access code. In addition, remote access users can change a Meet-me Conference access code using the feature access code.

  6. Enter the conference type.

    This field can have the following values:

    • 6-party - Enter this value to administer a regular 6-party conference. This value is the default.

    • expanded - Enter this value to administer up to a 300-party conference.

  7. If you set the Conference Type field to expanded, use the Route-to Number field to administer the ARS/AAR Feature Access Code, the routing digits, and the conference ID digits for the VDN.
  8. Press Enter to submit the VDN.
