  3. Enter an extension Number that callers can dial to join the conference call.
  4. Under Setting, enter a Display name for the conference call, and an optional Description.
  5. Enter a User PIN, which is the password users must enter to join the conference call.
  6. Callers need to dial the conference number and then enter their PIN.
