How to configure
For this feature to work, the feature 'Conference' must be enabled in the Class of Service group of the extensions
that are to be allowed this feature. By default, all extensions of ETERNITY are allowed this feature in their COS and
can make Conference calls. If you want allow this feature to certain extensions only, see “Basic Settings” for
instructions on configuring “Class of Service (COS)” for the different Extension types: SLT, DKP, SIP.
If extension users at remote locations are to be allowed to initiate the 3-party conference, “Direct Inward System
Access (DISA)” or “Direct Inward Dialing (DID)” must be enabled on the trunk on which their call lands.
The feature 'Conference' in the Class of Service also includes Dial-In and Multi-party Conference.
Extensions that are denied 'Conference' in their Class of Service will not be allowed all three types of
conferences: 3-Party, Dial-In and Multi-party Conference.
