[cisco-voip] MeetMe Conferencing - choose specific CFB

[Ryan Ratliff]

Your understanding is correct and there is no easy way around it.  You can try using something like CUAE to initiate the MeetMe but your desires are getting beyond the simple ad-hoc conferencing that CUCM natively supports.

I dont believe so. When you initiate a MeetMe conference, the CFB you are allocated is on the basis of the MRGL configured on the phone. I have a test phone with an MRGL with only hardware CFB within it and it does choose these when I initiate the MeetMe conference. I wondered if there was a way of choosing the CFB based upon the number dialled rather than the phones MRGL.

When you do a Meeteme number conference bridge it is always using the software CFB on the server.

Hi,
I am pretty sure you cant do this but I will ask anyway :-)
I have a CUCM 6 cluster (1 Pub, 2 Sub) with various CFB configured, some hardware on the PSTN routers (max participants 8) and some software on the CUCM servers themselves (max participants 48)
I have a MeetMe range of numbers configured (6301 - 6304) and an MRGL associated with my phone that is set to use the HW CFB (max participants 8)
So all of this means that I can setup MeetMe conferences that can take a max of 8 participants from my phone (I believe the conf bridge is allocated on the basis of the configured MRGL for the endpoint that initiates the conf). Now if there was a need for a large conference for some reason, I would have to associate my phone with a different MRGL so I would access the SW CFB rather than the HW CFB when I press the MeetMe button. This would be annoying.
Is there any way of associating the MeetMe number with a specific CFB? i.e. could I have 6301 and 6302 using the HW CFB and 6303 and 6304 using the SW CFB?
Cheers,
DT
