Guidelines
● Site Names display is Off by default in a new profile.
● Site Names can be enabled to function in one of two modes:
Auto – Site names are displayed for 10 seconds whenever the conference layout changes.
On – Site names are displayed for the duration of the conference.
● During the display of the site names, the video frame rate is slightly reduced
● Site Names display is not available for Video Switching (VSW) conferences.
● Site Names display characteristics (position, size, color) can by modified during an ongoing
conference using the Conference Properties - Site Names dialog box. Changes are immediately
visible to all participants.
● Site Names display text and background color is dependent on the Skin selected for the conference:
Plain Skins - Site Names text is displayed without a background.
Picture Skins - Site Names text is displayed with a background.
Shorten the Site Name Display
The SIP_OMIT_DOMAIN_FROM_PARTY_NAME System Flag can be used to remove Domain Names
from SIP dial-in participants’ Site Names. This prevents long domain names being appended to SIP
participant names, as frequently happens when the Collaboration Server is used with a DMA.
The flag must be manually added to the System Configuration and its value modified as follows:
● YES (Default) - The domain name is omitted from SIP dial-in participant names.
● NO - The domain name remains as part of SIP dial-in participant names.
