Topologies Supporting Dial-In Conferencing

[This is pre-release documentation and subject to change in future releases. This topic's current status is: Milestone-Ready]

Topic Last Modified: 2010-07-10

You can deploy dial-in conferencing in the following topologies and configurations:

On Standard Edition
On Enterprise Edition
In a separate A/V Conferencing pool
With or without Enterprise Voice

You can deploy Application service, Conference Attendant, and Conference Announcement in a central site, but not in a branch office site.

Note:
If you deploy dial-in conferencing, you must deploy it in every pool where you deploy Communications Server 2010 Conferencing. You do not need to assign access numbers in every pool, but you must deploy the dial-in conferencing feature in every pool. This requirement supports the recorded name feature when a user calls an access number from one pool to join a Communications Server 2010 conference in a different pool.
