The Web Conferencing Server enables conference participants to share content that has been uploaded to the conference. If Persistent Shared Object Model (PSOM) was used to upload all content to the conference, content can be downloaded from the Web Conferencing Server to a participant's Live Meeting client using either PSOM or HTTPS. If content is uploaded using HTTPS, then the download is performed by the IIS server instead of the Web Conferencing Server.

The following table describes the protocols that can be used to upload and download each type of slide that a Live Meeting presenter can create.
