Information for Beginners
Arranging for a videoconference is easy! There are just a few steps that you have to go through. First, decide how many sites are going to participate in the videoconference. If there is only your site and one other, you will have a point-to-point videoconference otherwise it will be a multipoint videoconference that requires use of the Northwestern Multipoint Control Unit (MCU). However, it should be noted that in some cases it may be desirable to stream a two site videoconference. In this case the MCU will have to be scheduled, and you should refer to the section on multi-site videoconferences.
