Abstract
A method is provided for configuring a video conference endpoint. The method comprises receiving session data that comprises endpoint connection data for remote endpoints associated with scheduled conferences, and receiving a signal from a user interface indicating a user has activated a control associated with a selected conference, identifying the endpoint connection data for the remote endpoint associated with the selected conference, and establishing a media session with the associated remote endpoint. A video conference endpoint system also is provided. The system comprises a controller coupled to a memory, and a user interface coupled to the controller. The user interface includes a command button associated with a conference. The controller periodically receives session data associated with the scheduled conferences, stores the session data in the memory, and establishes the selected conference in response to a user activating the command button.
