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.

Cascade

Cascading is an option that enables you to run a
conference which is connected directly to other
conferences. The conferences may run on different
MCUs or on the same MCU (for large conferences
that exceed the maximum number of participants per
conference). This field is used to enable and select
the Cascading mode. For more information, see the
MGC Manager User’s Guide, Vol. II.

Master

When setting a Slave conference, the Cascading
field should be set to Slave, and the name of the
participant that acts as the link to the master
conference should be selected from the Master field
drop-down list. For more information, see the MGC
Manager User’s Guide, Vol. II.
