Introduction
Purpose and audience
This document instructs system administrators and installers how to install,
configure, operate, and maintain the Nortel Networks Integrated Conference
Bridge as a part of the overall Meridian system. In this guide, Meridian
system refers to either the Meridian 1, Nortel Networks Communication
Server 1000, or the Communication Server 2100/Meridian SL-100 switch.
The Integrated Conference Bridge (ICB) card allows you to schedule and
configure multiple simultaneous conferences.
You can install the ICB card in either the Meridian 1, Communication Server
1000 (CS 1000), or CS 2100/Meridian SL-100. In the majority of places
the ICB operates the same way regardless of the system in which you
install it. When the information differs between the systems, this guide
contains separate sections for the Meridian 1 and CS 1000, and the CS
2100/Meridian SL-100 (for example, configuration information).
Structure This document contains the following sections:
•"Product description" (page 17) - describes how the ICB operates and
the conference features it provides, as well as the card hardware and
software characteristics.
•"Engineering guidelines" (page 35) - describes ICB system resource
allocation, and software and hardware requirements.
•"Installation and configuration" (page 45) - describes how to prepare
the system for installation, install the ICB card, connect the ICB to the
administration terminal, and configure the ICB. This chapter contains
separate configuration sections for the Meridian 1 and CS 1000, and the
CS 2100/Meridian SL-100.
•"Browser user interface" (page 83) - describes how to use the browser
user interface (BUI), a web-based server, for conference administration
and scheduling, as well as user administration and maintenance of the
ICB.

Product description
Purpose This chapter describes the functional and physical characteristics of the
Nortel Networks Integrated Conference Bridge Release 4. Technicians can
install the Integrated Conference Bridge (ICB) card in either a Meridian 1,
Nortel Networks Communication Server 1000, Meridian SL-100, or Nortel
Networks Communication Server 2100. This guide uses the term "Meridian
system" to refer to either the Meridian 1, Meridian SL-100, Communication
Server 1000 (CS 1000), or CS 2100.
The chapter contains the following sections:
•"ICB description" (page 17) - describes the ICB card and the role it plays
in conference calls. Summarizes ICB features and services.
•"Hardware overview" (page 21) - describes the hardware components
of the ICB system.
•"ICB operation" (page 26) - shows how ICB conferences operate.
ICB description
Conference administration
The ICB card allows users to schedule and administer multiple simultaneous
conferences. Schedule conferences based on time-of-day, duration of
each conference, and number of individuals (conferees) participating in, or
ports allocated, for each conference. Schedule a conference using one
of the following:
•"Browser user interface" (page 83) - point and click web-page application
•"Telephone user interface" (page 141) - telephone keypad entries
•"Microsoft Outlook GUI" (page 157) - Microsoft Office Outlook graphical
user interface (GUI)
•Ad hoc meeting - audio conference created now

18 Product description
The ICB card provides announcements and tones that relate to specific
events during conferences. These events include the following:
•advising the chairperson and conferees of the status of the conference
connection
•indicating when a conferee joins or leaves the conference, and
•warning the chairperson and the conferees when the conference is
about to expire.
Technicians can install multiple ICB cards into:
•a Media Gateway chassis shelf for a CS 1000
•an Intelligent Peripheral Equipment (IPE) shelf for a Meridian 1/CS 1000
•an Option 11 shelf
•an IPE shelf for a CS 2100/Meridian SL-100
Each ICB card can operate independently, providing up to 32 ports for
a single conference. The ICB card can support up to ten simultaneous,
separate conferences.
When users establish a single-card conference, they use the 32 ports on
the card. If two conferences are held at the same time, they need to share
the 32 ports. For example, if one user sets up a 10-port conference, the
other can set up a 22-port conference.
Technicians can connect two ICB cards to provide up to 62 ports for a single
conference. In dual mode, there can be only one dual-card meeting per
pair of cards. The user database and access numbers are not shared in a
dual-card configuration. There is a separate access number required for
a dual-card meeting.
The ICB supports several simultaneous conferences. The number of
conferences depends on the number of ICB ports available and the number
of participants (conferees) in each conference. Each ICB card supports
the following:
•maximum number of participants as follows:
— single-card: 32 participants
— dual-card: 62 participants (unless Chairperson Control over a
Dual-card Meeting is activated, in which case it is 60 participants)
•any number of conferences (up to 10) with one or more participants
in each conference

ICB description 19
The ICB communicates with the system software by emulating a digital
line card (XDLC), which allows existing software to control the operation of
the ICB. Configure each ICB port as an Automatic Call Distribution (ACD)
M2616 digital telephone set.
System overview
The ICB comes as a single card, or a pair of cards if additional ports are
required to support a dual-card meeting. Each card stands alone, even in
the dual-card configuration. For dual-card meetings, the primary card uses
ports on the secondary card. The following rules apply:
•Each card (that is, the primary and secondary) has its own set of users.
There is no "common list" for both cards.
•To schedule a conference, the user logs into the card in which their
account is defined. If the user has two accounts, one on each card,
they must try each card separately to find available resources for the
conference. There is no automatic pooling between cards.
•A user, super-user, or executive-user can have accounts on many cards
at a company (that is, a customer can have one person who administers
multiple bridges for their company).
•Dual-card conferences can only be scheduled by users on the primary
card.
ICB conference feature summary
The ICB:
•Allows volume control by conference participants.
•Offers customized conference-specific greetings.
•Enables users to acquire and release chairperson control while in a
conference.
•Delivers pre-meeting and post-meeting participants notifications.
•Allows one chairperson per conference.
•Offers optional chairperson control on the secondary card of a dual-card
conference.
•Provides for one or more permanent bridge configurations.
•Supports multiple conferences simultaneously.
•Provides chairperson commands during an active conference.
•Provides conferee commands during an active conference.
•Allows conference extension beyond the scheduled time.
•Issues a 10-minute warning, before the conference termination. Also
issues a second warning, two minutes before conference termination.
