Remote users connecting to A/V conferences must be authenticated at the Edge Server. The Office Communications Server Audio/Video Authentication service authenticates users participating in A/V conferencing. To do this, the A/V Conferencing Server must be configured with the appropriate A/V authentication settings. The settings you specify at the pool level apply to inbound and outbound A/V connections (RTP/RTCP streams) on all A/V Conferencing Servers in a pool.
