10.20 Conference
The ALE Myriad Series phones support three-way local conference and multi-way network conference.
10.20.1 Local Conference Configuration
The local conference requires a host phone to process the audio of all parties. The ALE Myriad Series
phones support up to 3 parties (5 parties for the M7 IP phone) (12 parties for the M8 IP phone) (including
yourself) in a local conference call.
You can enable or disable the local conference feature and configure the way to set up a local conference.
For the ALE Myriad Series deskphones, you can merge two calls into a conference directly by pressing the
Conf soft key or Conf hard key.
For a local three-way conference, if the conference initiator leaves the conference, all parties are
disconnected and the conference call ends. You can enable Transfer on Conference Hang Up feature and
allow the other two parties to remain connected when the conference initiator drops the conference call.
The following table lists the parameters you can use to configure local conference.
Note: X means account ID. It can be number 1~8 for M3/M5/M7, and 1-20 for M8.
10.20.1.1 Transfer on Conference
You can enable Transfer on Conference Hang Up feature and allow the other two parties to remain connected
when the conference initiator drops the conference call.
10.20.2 Network Conference Configuration
Network conference, also known as a centralized conference, provides you with the flexibility of call with
multiple participants (more than three). The IP phones implement network conference using the REFER
method specified in RFC 4579. This feature depends on the support from a SIP server.
For network conference, if any party leaves the conference, the remaining parties are still connected.
The following table lists the parameter you can use to configure network conference.
Note: X means account ID. It can be number 1~8 for M3/M5/M7, and 1-20 for M8.
