Centralized Conferencing (for Sylantro and Broadsoft Servers)
The 6739i allows you to create multiple conferences with unlimited participants (depending on your server limitations)
when your Administrator enables Centralized Conferencing.
If your Administrator does not enable Centralized Conferencing, then the 6739i uses Local Conferencing by default.
Your Administrator can configure Centralized Conferencing globally on all lines or on specific lines. Although, for the glo-
bal setting to work, you must configure the lines with the applicable phone number.
