Set-CsConferencingPolicy

Indicates whether or not participants are allowed to make on-screen annotations on any content shared during the meeting; in addition, this setting determines whether or not whiteboarding is allowed in the conference. The default value is True.

Note that annotations are not archived along with other meeting content.

This setting applies to the user who organizes the conference: if set to False, no conference created by a user affected by this policy will include annotations. However, the user can participate in other conferences where annotations are allowed.

If set to False then only authenticated users (that is, users logged on to your Active Directory Domain Services or the Active Directory of a federated partner) are allowed to attend the meeting. The default value is True.

Note that dial-in conferencing is allowed even when this setting is False.

This setting applies to the user who organizes the conference: if set to False, no conference created by a user affected by this policy will allow anonymous participants to join the conference by dialing out; however, the user can take part in other conferences where anonymous users can join by dialing out.

The default value is False ($False).

This setting applies to all users taking part in the conference.

Indicates whether external users (either anonymous users or federated) are allowed to take control of shared applications or desktops. The default value is False.

Indicates whether external users (either anonymous users or federated users) are allowed to record the meeting. The default value is False.

This setting applies to the user who organizes the conference: if set to False, no conference created by a user affected by this policy will allow external users to record conferences. However, the user can take part in other conferences where external users are allowed to record meetings.

If set to True and conference admission policy is set to "Anyone from my organization" or openAuthenticated, federated users are treated as company users and admitted into conference directly. If set to True and conference admission policy is set to "People I Invite" or closedAuthenticated, federated users will be put into the lobby if they were not present in the pre-set invitee list.

Indicates whether or not computer audio is allowed in the meeting. The default value is True.

This setting applies to the user who organizes the conference: if set to False, no conference created by a user affected by this policy will allow IP audio. However, the user can take part in other conferences where IP audio is allowed.

However, the user can participate in other conferences where multiview is allowed.

Indicates whether or users who have not been enabled for Enterprise Voice are allowed to join a conference using dial-out phoning. With dial-out phoning the conferencing server will telephone the user; when the user answers the phone, he or she will be joined to the conference.

Note that dial-in conferencing is allowed even when this setting is False.

This setting applies to the user who organizes the conference: if set to False, no conference created by a user affected by this policy will allow users who have not been enabled for Enterprise Voice to join the conference via dial-out phoning.

This parameter is not available in Skype for Business Online.

Indicates whether users are able to join the meeting by dialing in with a public switched telephone network (PSTN) telephone. The default value is True.

This setting applies to the user who organizes the conference: if set to False, no conference created by a user affected by this policy will allow dial-in conferencing. However, the user can take part in other conferences where dial-in conferencing is allowed.

When set to True (the default value) clients will attempt to join a conference using multiview (which allows the client to receive multiple video streams during the conference). This parameter will be ignored if multiview is not allowed in the conference being joined. This setting is enforced at the per-user level and for both conferences and peer-to-peer communication sessions. That means that some users in a session might be allowed to have multiple video streams while other users in the same conference might not.

When set to True, users will be prompted any time they schedule a meeting in Outlook that includes invitees (such as a meeting room) that would benefit from having the meeting held online. The default value is False.

Indicates whether peer-to-peer file transfers (that is, file transfers that do not involve all participants) are allowed during the meeting. The default value is True ($True).

Suppresses the display of any non-fatal error message that might occur when running the command.

Unique identifier for the conferencing policy to be modified. Conferencing policies can be configured at the global, site, or per-user scopes. To modify the global policy, use this syntax: -Identity global. To modify a site policy, use syntax similar to this: -Identity site:Redmond. To modify a per-user policy, use syntax similar to this: -Identity SalesConferencingPolicy.

Note that wildcards are not allowed when specifying an Identity. If you do not specify an Identity the Set-CsConferencingPolicy cmdlet will automatically modify the global conferencing policy.

Allows you to pass a reference to an object to the cmdlet rather than set individual parameter values.
