<p>A method and computer program product which allows both phone-based (112a-112n) and IP-based (112a-112n) clients to participate in a single audio conference. The method enables at least two multi-point control units (MCUs) (110, 104) (i.e., conference servers) to connect via a standard data linkage (108) (I.E., full-duplex dial-up or IP link). The method and computer program product enables the phone-based MCU (110) to handle the phone clients (112a-112n) and the IP-based MCU (104) to handle the IP-based clients (102a-102n), while connecting the two to allow each participating client to hear all other participating clients.</p> |
