Need to setup participant and leader based conference

So I’ve got my system setup so that you call in and it requires a pin. What I would like to do is setup so that there’s two sets of pins. One set is for participants and one set for leaders. This way a participant can join a bridge but in order to use the bridge they have to have the leader join the bridge.

Your help is greatly appreciated.

Hi

What you need to do is set a flag when the leader is there and that flag is looked at by the other members, and when it is set they are joined or UnMuted.

The easy way is to make them wait on MOH till the dialplan sees the flag.

Hi
Are you using app_conference or meetme?

I have explained how it can be done and I have had a play and my idea works fine.

Basicly as members enter the conf number and pin they are queued up in a loop doing a lookup every X seconds. when the flag they are doing a lookup on is changed to a state to show the leader has joined the rest of the members pile in. I have it so that when the leader leaves the conference it is locked, members can carry on talking but new members cannot join except the leader again.

I’m currently using meetme
