Meeting Place 8.0 + Webex Scheduling

We are using MP 8 with WebexNode for mcs, when opening a meeting, we always have to check the box  'allow external participants' otherwise we are disconnected from the meeting.
Can anyone suggest what setting may be causing this please.
Cheers
Rich

Rich,
This is not normal behavior.  I am not sure what is causing this problem so need to understand a little more about your environment.
I assume you have a WebEx Node for internal meetings and the internal meetings work OK? Now with the above mentioned check box checked all meetings default to the being external in the cloud though you can still schedule internal meetings.
Does your WebEx support SSO and integrated with MP for security and profile maintenance?
Are you on the network when you try to join these meetings?
Can you sign-in as the host?
If you have the WebEx Node you have internal licenses?
Sorry for all the questions.

  • Meeting Place 8.0 + Webex Node?

    Hello to all,
    We have purchased two IBM 7835 servers with the intention of building on as meeting place 8.0 (EMS) and one as a webex node,
    The question I have is about the placement of the servers.
    I have read the SRND and are still not sure where the webex node (collaboration) server is to be placed, the docs say this should typically be on the
    inside network closest to participants
    Also where is the best placement for the MP 8.0 server DMZ or Inside the nework,
    I guess the  collaborative model we are looking at is the
    Cisco Unified MeetingPlace with Cisco WebEx Node for Cisco MCS
    Any help or docs would be well appreciated.
    Thanks

    Hi all,
    I encounter the same constraint, so I want to ask you :
    We've deployed a Meeting place8.0.0.393 in LAN. Then a Webex Node for MCS will be added.
    The concern is that Meeting place is deployed in that LAN, then the WebexNode will be installed there also (on premise).
    Thus the DNS that will be used is like "myenterprise.local". ( mpapps1.myenterprise.local and  wbxNode1.myenterprise.local)
    Its not like .com or .org or any domain reachable from Intenet. the .local is not reachable from Internet.
    So my question is : is it possible to use this domain.local in the place of the place of the FQDN of the webex node and Application Node fields?

  • Meeting Place 8.5 Authentication users fails

    Hi all,
    My customer have installed The Meeting Place 8.5 and have problem whit the authentication of the users.
    They have configured the Directory Service, for import users and use the Meeting Place Conference manager to Schedule the Meetings.
    When try to intro to the Conference Managers with a Directory Service user, receive an error "Wrong user ID and password combination"
    The user Profile exist in the MP.
    I attach some screens.
    Please I need your help.
    Thanks a lot
    Guillermo

    Hi Guillermo,
    MeetingPlace Conference Manager is meant for users with Attendant or System Manager privileges on the system. Regular End users are not allowed to use Conference Manager and shouldn't be allowed. The same is observed when trying to log in to the Administration Center web interface of MP Application server. Only local user profiles can log in.
    Is there a reason why the end users don't use MeetingPlace Outlook plug-in to schedule meetings via their Microsoft Outlook clients?
    Here you can find more information about Conference Manager: http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/voice_ip_comm/meetingplace/8_5/english/books/admin_doc_compilation/mp85_admin_documentation/meetingmanager_install.html
    As for scheduling via Outlook, you can find more information here: http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/voice_ip_comm/meetingplace/8_5/english/books/admin_doc_compilation/mp85_admin_documentation/outlook_integration.html
    I hope this will help.

    The following case was opened for this above question/problem:
    http://wwwin-tools.cisco.com/casekwery/getServiceRequest.do?id=624495099
    In summary,
    It appears that a maintenance window of 45 minutes was configured for the meeting place server
    at Dec 17 2012 16:00 NZD, and it blocked all further calls into the system.
    In Meeting place 8.0 scheduling a maintenance  windows will result in  system reserving
    all available access ports , resulting in  total unavailability  for new callers. However
    existing calls will be preserved.
    Please refer
    http://docwiki.cisco.com/wiki/Cisco_Unified_MeetingPlace_Release_8.0_--_Monitoring_and_Mai
    ntaining_the_Cisco_Unified_MeetingPlace_Web_Server#Scheduling_a_Maintenance_Window
    Once all the ports are reserved system will disallow all new callers from joining the
    meeting by giving error message 480, Temporarily in available
    Pramoth stated:
    Thanks for the finding. We didn't out the system under maintenance on that day.
    Where can I check to confirm if the system was put under Maintenance mode during that
    time.
    The Engineer went on further to say
    In meeting place 8.0 , while scheduling a meeting users can select an option called
    'reserve all ports'. Selecting this option will create a meeting, in your case 6988 that
    will block all access ports.
    You can right click on meeting 6988 --> Select Meeting details --> Check 'Meeting
    Type' and it will be 'reserve all ports'
    Access ports are virtual software ports by which audio callers access application server.
    When a person schedules a meeting and uses the option 'reserve all ports' ,system will
    reserve all system access ports for that meeting making meeting place  inaccessible for
    anyone else for calling in. Since users are unable to call in or schedule meeting this
    meeting will act as a maintenance window.
    0x122 is the Unique Meeting id corresponding to meeting id  6988. You can confirm it if
    you run 'mtginfo -m 6988' from you application server, it will display 0x122 as unique
    meeting id.
    just trying to provide some info to this question in case anyone runs across the same issue. they can see the notes/details that has been provided

  • Time issue while scheduling meeting in meeting place 8.0

    Dear Team,
    I am very new to Meeting Place  system. Here we have version 8.0 and i am facing below issue.
    While scheduling meeting when i have mentioned start time as 13.30 and end after 30 min.
    but the issue is user can join the meeting before 13.30 and thats is security issue
    i would like to know how to restict this. my requiremnt is user can only join before 10 min.
    Regards
    Hari

    Hi Hari,
    Is you MeetingPlace 8.0 integrated with WebEx, or it is an Audio Only solution?
    If you are scheduling meetings in Audio Only solution, you can specify "Early meeting start (minutes)" variable in System Configuration > Meeting Configuration.
    If you have WebEx integration and WebEx scheduling, you would need to specify a default "Join before host", but every host would have to configure that for their own profile.

  • Meeting Place and Webex Call Back Failing

    Hi
    Meeting place 8.5 with WebEx scheduling, SIP trunk to CUCM 8.5.
    Calling in using the specified number configured in call manager completes over the SIP trunk however call back from webex fails.
    Error:
    WebEx call back failed; no answer.
    Problem is I never recieve a call. I have enabled Webex call backs in webex.
    Seems like there is an issue on either MP or CUCM.
    Just looking for some ideas as I am stumped.

    This turned out to be a few things:
    1) I needed to configure a SIP proxy to CUCM from meeting place. This was the CUCM IP address and TCP port number.
    2) The SIP trunk security profile needed to be reconfigured for this trunk.
    3) E164 was being used so I created a translation pattern to strip the + for the CSS associated with the RP.
    A few things learned along the way.
    1) The "activity" command ran from a SSH prompt with allow you to simulate a call from meeting place. Option 4, enter the number to dial and "f" for port.
    2) In meeting place - Services -Logs - System Information Capture - Loading the index file and under the  CCA SIP LOG is the error being returned by CUCM. In my case it was Warning: 399 CSLCCM1 "Unable to find a device handler for the request received on port
    3) Command "cptrace" again from the SSH prompt will allow you to view the digits being sent from webex to meeting place.
    I hope this information helps someone...

  • Meeting Place WebEx 8.0 reservationless audio meeting ID issue

    We have just converted from Meeting Place Express 2.x to Meeting Place WebEx 8.0 with Type II scheduling.  Since this configuration is reservationless, the audio meeting ID is the user's extension by default and it appears there is no way to change the system from always using the same audio meeting ID for the same user.  Our issue is that we have many executive admins who book multiple meetings (sometimes overlapping, sometimes back-to-back) and are now having issues.  Since the meetings all share the same audio ID, the meetings are stepping on top of one another.  Is there some way to allow the users to change the audio ID per meeting or have the system generate an ID for the audio meeting to prevent this issue?

    Hi Saurabh,
    MCS7835-I3 is supported by MeetingPlace 8.5 for Audio Only solution. You will need to perform the firmware upgrade before installing 8.5, but all that is documented in the installation documentation.
    Keep in mind that from MP8.0 to MP8.5, you are transitioning via migration and not via upgrade. This will require taking migration files from MP8.0 server, performing a firmware update, doing a clean installation of MP8.5 and then restoring from migration files.
    In order to obtain MP8.5 installation DVD, you have to purchase the MP8.5 upgrade that is usually included in UCSS/ESW contract. If that expired, you will have to consult with your Cisco Account Team on what is the best way to proceed.
    Finally, in MP8.0 licensing is port based, while in MP8.5 licensing is host based. Hence, you will need to do a license conversion after migration is completed. Licensing TAC can help you with that.
    Here are some useful documents about this:
    INSTALLATION instructions:
    http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/voice_ip_comm/meetingplace/8_5/english/administration/inst_order.html
    MIGRATION instructions:

  • Meeting Place 8.6 Integration with Webex

    Hi, I would like to get a better understanding of workflow and packet flow for MP 8.6 integration with Webex.
    My customer is looking to initiate an on prem meeting with MP 8.6 via outlook scheduling /jabber (if possible). All audio and video would be on prem. Also, this would be a multipoint video call, so I am assuming an MCU would be required (unless MP 8.6 provide MCU capabilities).
    Then, through a federated IM environment, my customer would like to be able to chat with an external partner via jabber and escalete the on prem MP8.6 conference to a Webex meeting to add the external partner to the meeting.
    Questions
    1. Are you able to walk me through how this would work?
    2. Can you recommend a bill or materials based on the scenario and facts below? Right now I am assuming we need CUWL professional for required users,  a UCS C210, an MCU and Webex subscription.
    Current Assumptions & Questions
    1. In this scenario the audio bridge would have to remain on prem and the external partner could request a call from meeting place to join the audi bridge back via Webex. Correct?
    2. If am MCU is being used on prem for the multipoint video conference and the conference was escalated to a webex via jabber how many video connections to Webex would there be? Single multiplexed video from the MCU or individual video connections from on prem to Webex and Webex would combine the video sources?
    3. Is Webex Node still required?
    4. With MP 8.6 is scheduling still tightly integrated with Outlook?
    Facts:
    1. Users are a combination of CUWL standard and professional. Professional users for conferencing and mobile jabber.
    2. Customer has TP envrironment which would be multipoint video participants
    3. Customer has compatible CUCM and CUPS with MP 8.6
    4. Jabber desktop will be installed on all clients
    5. Customer is expanding PRI, ISR and DSP resources to support additional audio requirements

    All - what have discoverd is Meeting Place node is going away. Meetings will be held in Webex moving forward and MP should be used as an on prem audio bridge only. Some new WebEx solutions are on the roadmap.

  • Webex (cloud) integrated with Meeting Place 8.5 no audio record

                       Meeting Place 8.5 fully integrated with Webex.  Webex scheduling is used.  Meeting participants use Webex for the sharing of video and desktop.  Meeting participants call into the Meeting Place Server for audio.  Recording is turned on by the Host on Webex.   Recording is saved.  When recording is played back, cannot hear any audio from that I was assuming is recorded on the Meeting Place Server.  I need guidance on how to get audio recording of meeting using Meeting Place as the audio conference bridge.  Host user is setup on Webex to use Meeting Place server.  As far as I can tell users are set up correctly.  Any help will be greatly appreciated.  Thanks.

    Hi Thomas,
    Is this a new deployment or a production environment?
    What exact version for MeetingPlace 8.5 do you have?
    Was recording working before and just stopped, or it never worked?
    Can you attach the screen shot of "MeetingPlace Administration Center > Cisco WebEx Configuration > Cisco WebEx Site Configuration"?
    Can you attach the screen shot of your "WebEx Site Administration > Manage Site > Site Settings > View Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Integration Settings page" page?
    How recording works:
    When you start a meeting in WebEx, and participants join audio on MeetingPlace, and you click Record button, WebEx dials in to MeetingPlace using the  "NBR Dial-out Number" configured in "WebEx Site Administration > Manage Site > Site Settings > View Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Integration Settings page" and joins the meeting with recording user credentials automatically generated by the system and initiates recording of the audio portion of the meeting. Audio and web recording are afterwards mixed in the cloud and available for playback.
    Issues seen with recording:
    1. "NBR Dial-out Number" is wrong (wrong Access number is provided when Cisco WebEx Site Configuration was configured).
    2. DTMF digits weren't passed properly to MeetingPlace when WebEx dialed in to MeetingPlace to join the meeting and start the recording. However, in those case you would probably hear MeetingPlace prompts in the recording and not silence.
    3. Recording wasn't triggered properly in WebEx and needs investigation (investigation with WebEx support)
    4. Recording couldn't be started on MeetingPlace and needs investigation (logs, TAC case, etc.)
    I hope this information is helpful for the start.

  • Meeting Place 7.1 Scheduling recurring voice conference issue

    Hello I am having an issue with Meeting Place 7.1, whenever we try to schedule a recurring voice conference we do not get the whole schedules that we need.
    For example If I try to schedule a conference daily for a month I don´t get schedule all the 30 days I get an error in some days.
    I have found this in the User Guide for Cisco Unified MeetingPlace thecnical documentation:
    • If the system is unable to schedule all meetings in your complete recurring meeting chain, it prompts
    you about the meetings it could not schedule. If this happens, set up individual instances of the
    meetings that could not be scheduled.
    But I am wondering if there is something that could fix this issue, becuase it happens every time we try to use the recurring option.
    Thanks in advance for your help.

    what does the Username for the dedicated email account for Cisco Unified MeetingPlace on the Microsoft Exchange Server indicate?
    Example: [email protected]  
    Does that means that email notifications sent by meeting place will be sent by the email address [email protected]?

  • Question in Cisco Unified Meeting Place 8.5 with Webex integration

    Greetings,
    Let us say that I have the following requirements for fresh installation:
    UCS C210-M2
    CUWL-Pro for users (700 users)
    CUCM 8.6
    Cisco unified Meeting Place 8.5
    My concern is about Meeting place; one of the requirments is to order Meeting Place 8.5 for local (on-premises) audio conferencing, and use Cisco Webex (cloud) for Web & Video conferencing.
    I have the following questions:
    - What part numbers should be ordered for meeting place and Webex?
    - CUWL-Pro comes with Webex ports included, can use those ports?
    Thanks in advance..

    Hi Anand,
    For MP 8.5 new setup, you don't need a web server. Web server is an optional component only when you are upgrading the system from earlier MP releases.
    If you are installing Webex node, it needs to be on a seperate MCS server (however, this is an optional component).
    Application server and Express Media Server require only one UCS server if this is single node deployment.
    Hardware requirements for application server and Webex node can be found in the following documents:
    http://docwiki.cisco.com/wiki/Cisco_Unified_MeetingPlace_Release_8.5_--_Hardware_Requirements#Application_Server_Requirements
