ProcedureTo Create Conference Rooms

No conference rooms exist for you to subscribe to. However, at the beginning of this evaluation, you used Access Manager to grant Duncan permission to create conference rooms, so you now exercise this functionality to create a few conference rooms.


Note –

Users Tina and Kathy do not have permission to create conference rooms. You can modify their permissions by using Access Manager.


Steps
  1. In Duncan's main Instant Messenger window, click the Conferences tab. In Kathy's main Instant Messenger window, click the Conferences tab.

  2. In Duncan's Instant Messenger client, choose Manage Conferences from the File drop-down menu.

    The Manage Conferences pop-up window appears.

  3. Click New Conference to create a conference room.

    You are asked for a conference room ID and name. For simplicity, choose the same name for both the ID and the name, for example, ID: Stocks, name: Stocks).

    The Add Conferences pop-up window appears.

  8. Click Browse Conferences to get a list of all available conference rooms.

    The selected room appears in the Add Conferences window.

    1. Click OK to add the conference in the Conferences tab.

    2. Make sure that both Duncan and Kathy have the same conference in their main Instant Messenger window.
