[cisco-voip] Meet Me won't die

[Fretz, EA Eric at IS]

I am not sure what "Meet Me" you are talking about.  "Meet Me" is a style of
conferencing provided by CallManager out-of-the-box...no extra purchase
necessary.  If you have CallManager, you have everthing you need, unless you
want to do hardware transcoding (software conferene bridge provided with CCM
only supports G.711 codec).  Hardware transcoding/conference bridge requires
you have a router or Catalyst 6000/7200 series switch with certain DSP
modules installed to do the conversion.

A Cisco 3800 series router with the -K9 voice package (basically IPVOICE
software with a PVDM2-64) can easily exceed $10,000.

Hi Eric,

We are getting ready to purchase Meet Me.  I would like to know your opinion
on the product.  Thank you in advance.

Wes,

No we do not use ICT.  The only H323 interaction is between a 3745 Router
(equipped with E&M ports) and CCM itself.  During testing, we registered CTI
Ports (via JTAPI) and used the CTI Ports as place holders to hold open a
Meet-Me conference.  When the conferences won't die, we have verified that
all H323/IP Communicator devices are out of the conference....  I have even
gone as far as to unregister the CTI ports. If I try to respawn the
conference with IP Communicator (via the MeetMe button), I get a fast busy.
If I dial the conference number like a normal call, I am put into the
conference.  In this situation, the only way we have found to effectively
kill the conference is to cycle the CallManager service.  

Weird, huh?

Eric

do you use intercluster trunk (or other h323 device) and/or use IOS
conferencing ?

<crickets>....

take a look at CSCsd07174 just recently filed and resolved
