Question
How do I use the Cisco Webex Teams Device to place a call for a video conference meeting?
Answer
-
To create your own meeting, go to ysu.webex.com and log in with your YSU email address.
-
From the main page click Schedule a Meeting on the right side of the screen.
-
Fill in all the fields for your meeting details.
-
After you create the meeting, you will get an email confirmation. Everyone you invited will also get the meeting information.
-
Your email will have the Host Key information. You will need this information to join the meeting through the Webex Device.
-
The attendees’ emails will have all the same information except the Host Key. They can click the join the meeting link in the email to join from their web browser.
-
From the touch panel in a Cisco Teams equipped room, you can type in the 9-digit meeting number followed by @ysu.webex.com. This information will also be in the email you received for the meeting.
-
After you type this in, click yes for the option to host the meeting, and then type in the host key sent to your email.
-
If you are not hosting the meeting and receive a meeting invite to someone's Webex meeting, you can just type in the 9-digit number followed by @ and their organization's Webex address. This will be in the email invite you receive from them.
If someone sends you an invite for a non-Webex meeting, you can only join this type of meetings if the invite includes a SIP address. If you do not have a Webex Meeting or a meeting with an SIP address, you will not be able to place a call with a Cisco Webex Conferencing Device.
