ADTRAN/Polycom Conference Management Configuration Guide

This guide explains the process for configuring the Conference Management feature on the ADTRAN/Polycom IP phone models.  This guide is designed for use with the NetVanta 7000 series and ADTRAN/Polycom phones.

Overview


The Conference Management feature allows a user to view all of the conference parties.  The user can hold, remove, and mute individual parties from this management screen.  This feature also allows some IP phone models to add a fourth party for a four-way conference call (see Table 1 below for the number of conference parties supported per phone model).

The Conference Management feature is supported on the following phone models.


  • Soundpoint IP 450
  • Soundpoint IP 550, 560
  • Soundpoint IP 650, 670
  • Soundstation IP 7000
  • VVX 300, 310
  • VVX 400, 410
  • VVX 500, 600

For this feature, AOS version R10.3.0 or later is required on the NetVanta 7000 series and Polycom UC software release 4.0.1 or later is required on these phone models.
