Mixed Configuration: One Web Server and a Cluster of Web Servers

Load Balancing Behaviors in Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Web Conferencing

All users attend a Cisco Unified MeetingPlace web conference by opening their browsers and signing in
through the Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Web Conference home page. When the first meeting participant
attempts to join the web conference, the Cisco MeetingPlace Agent Service determines if the meeting
should be held on an internal web server or external web server by checking the Allow Internet Access
parameter. This parameter is only visible if your Cisco Unified MeetingPlace system has an external site
or cluster configured.
