Integrate your audio with Live Meeting

When setting up your Live Meeting account you will have two options to decide how you wish to start your meeting.

  1. To set up a scheduled meeting using Outlook/Lotus Notes or the Live Meeting console
  2. Using the Meet Now option to start an unscheduled meeting.

You will be required to set up the audio integration meeting setting for both options before you start using the service.
