Adding Screen Sharing and Capability to Join Video Conference from external Client

[HARIS_HUSSAIN]

We have existing Video setup with Expressway-C/E Used for B2b Calls and MRA.

We have MCU Server for Video Conferencing.Sx20 and C40 Codec with Multisite Conferencing Lic.

We are able to setup B2B calls successfully. 

What we are looking at is we want

==> Capability of any Person Outside Organization to Join Our Video Conference  Hosted on MCU from Desktop.

==> External Party will not have any Video Endpoint or setup, What Client he can use to Join Jabber Guest Client ?

==> Ability  to share the Presentation. 

 Any experts here can guide me how can i achieve  above Utilizing existing Setup. I was reviewing Cisco Jabber Guest and Cisco Meeting Server as possibilities.

Hi Haris,

==> Capability of any Person Outside Organization to Join Our Video Conference  Hosted on MCU from Desktop.

I would go for Meeting Server

==> External Party will not have any Video Endpoint or setup, What Client he can use to Join Jabber Guest Client ?

Jabber Guest offers users outside the enterprise the ability to connect to specific endpoints via a web browser

==> Ability  to share the Presentation. 

this isn't supported in MRA

Thanks Mohammed al Baqari,

But External Party will not Join Via MRA .

If we use Cisco Meeting Server can they use Cisco Meeting App or Cisco Jabber Client ?.

Do I Need to configure Extension for Each of the Guest ?

Thanks

Haris

Meeting Server will replace with MCU. You don't need both. 

Both Jabber client and Meeting App can contact Meeting Server and join meetings. 

You can have a pool of extensions for guests.

Regarding the MRA, this was a restriction in case you want to use. I use lot of app sharing when I join using jabber client and through MRA, it won't work. Known unsupported

Just digging in the Cisco Documentation, It says Cisco Meeting App is currently Unsupported. So only Option is through WebRTC Not sure will it support Screen Share ? Any Idea

Appendix 2: Unsupported Deployments

Cisco Meeting Application traversing the Expressway pair to the Cisco Meeting Server. This is work in progress, but not available in X8.9. External users can join with the WebRTC Client using a supported browser.

You still need a CMS Edge for WebRTC right now.

If i Add Cisco Meeting Server , Then Do i Need MCU !!

I believe both are acting as Conference Bridge !!
