Additional notes
Additional notes on virtual meeting rooms and meeting control:
If a meeting room is configured to automatically call one or more participants and/or conference systems, these will be dialed as soon as an operator or a participant “triggers” the meeting room. For example, when you as an operator activate a meeting room by calling conference system A, conference systems B and C will also be dialed immediately if they are configured for automatic dialing.
Keep in mind that automatic dialing can be disruptive to operations if someone joins a meeting room with this feature enabled to test the connection or calls in earlier than the scheduled meeting time. This could interfere with other ongoing meetings where these conference systems are already participating.
For privacy reasons, avoid monitoring and managing ongoing meetings without a clear purpose or assignment. Familiarize yourself with your organization’s policies and guidelines regarding applicable restrictions.
Ensure proper record maintenance to prevent meeting rooms from remaining active unnecessarily. For example, use the automatic deletion feature to remove rooms at a specified time.
Make it a habit to always secure meeting rooms with at least a PINcode and update the PIN periodically.
Users can be assigned static meeting rooms and self-manage them in the Mividas Meeting Portal. For example, they can update PIN codes and add or remove members from the meeting room. The Mividas Meeting Portal also allows enforcing PIN codes to reduce the risk of having completely open meeting rooms.
