7.4 Inviting Additional Users from Other H.323
Videoconferencing Applications
In 5760 VCA and other H.323 videoconferencing applications, you must enter a
code in order to invite other users to an ad-hoc videoconference. If you do not
know the code, ask the system administrator.
! To invite and join other parties into an ad-hoc videoconference
1. During an ongoing point-to-point videoconference, open your
application’s Dialing utility.
2. Dial *77 (or an administrator-defined value) followed by the [additional
user’s directory number]. For example, dial *77751 to invite end point 751
into the videoconference.
3. After dialing, an Incoming Call message may appear. Accept the call.
The session is now a multipoint conference. The parties’ video is
displayed in Continuous Presence (multiple users’ video on screen at all
times) or Voice-Activated Switching (speaker’s video only on screen), in
accordance with the MCU configuration.
