Polycom 501 conferencing with FreeSwitch
Hello, I am trying to set a Polycom 501 phone to do conferencing via the conference room on Freeswitch rather than on the phone (as on the phone it is limited to 3 participants only). Anyone had success with it? I have on the Freeswitch an extension named Conf.* which activates the conference application (it works with other brands). On the Polycom I tried to define voIpProt.SIP.*conference*.address=sip:Conf0000@freeswitch-server. The phone continues to create the conference locally and add the above Conf0000 to it, without REFERing the parties to it. The first phone which called is left on hold... Anyone managed to make this feature work? We use firmware 3.1.3. Thanks! __Yehavi:
Polycom Firmware matrix (Look at the polycom website) does not allow firmware higher than 2.3.2 (I think) to be loaded on the old 501 phones...So first confirm you are on a supported firmware release...

After some discussions with Polycom support it seems that their conferencing support is based on draft-ietf-sipping-cc-conferencing-03 (which is not the latest and is not compatible with the latest one). Any idea whether it is possible to program Freeswitch to support this draft? Thanks, __Yehavi: 2009/11/29 Ujjval Karihaloo <ujjval@simplesignal.com>

Its software, anything is possible with enough time and effort. Mike On Dec 17, 2009, at 2:29 AM, Yehavi Bourvine wrote:

I'll rephrase my question: Has anyone done that, or should I dig into it? After all, Polycom is quite common... Thanks, __Yehavi: 2009/12/17 Michael Jerris <mike@jerris.com>
