Appendix D-Ad Hoc Conferencing and External Database Authentication
D-4
Entry Queue Level - Conference Initiation Validation with
an External Database Application
Starting a new conference with external database application validation
entails the following steps:
Figure D-2 Conference Initiation Validation with External Database Application
1 The participant dials in to an Ad Hoc-enabled Entry Queue.
2 The participant is requested to enter the Conference ID.
3 The participant enters the conference ID via his/her endpoint remote
control using DTMF codes. If there is an ongoing conference with this
Conference ID, the participant is moved to that conference where
another authentication process can occur, depending on the IVR
Service configuration.
4 If there is no ongoing conference with that Conference ID, the MCU
verifies the Conference ID with the database application that
compares it against its database. If the database application finds a
match, the external database application sends a response back to the
MCU, granting the participant the right to start a new ongoing
conference.
