      If OpenScape UC has been deployed with Individual Video View Layout, all participants can start a screen sharing session or steam video. This is valid for moderated conferences too.

      • Specify the device on which a participant is called in case of Dial Out Conferences in the Device area.
      • Set participants as call in or call out in the Call In/out area.
        Call out participants are automatically called when the conference starts, while call in participants can only join the conference by dialing in.
