Setting up breakouts with Smart Distribute

Smart Distribute evenly distributes users with compatible audio connections to the existing breakout rooms. (See Audio Conflicts below for details.)

To change the available breakout rooms see "How do I modify the available breakout groups?" RRM-59 - Getting issue details... STATUS

If the Smart Distribute breakout configuration is satisfactory and it is not time to start breakouts, click Apply Breakouts. This will save the breakout configuration  and close the Assistant Panel.

To start the breakouts later in the session, reopen the VP Assistant Panel, choose the Breakoutstab, select Smart Distribute and click Apply and Start Breakouts.

If his configuration is satisfactory and you are ready to start breakouts immediately, click Apply and Start Breakouts.  

Smart Distribute indicates an attendee's audio connection type (Phone, VOIP or Just Listening) by the icon to the left the attendee's name. The icon key is located at the upper left of the Smart Distribute panel.

You cannot place a Phone attendee in a breakout room with a VOIP or Just Listening attendee. Doing so creates an audio conflict that is identified by a red background. The affected VOIP and Just Listening attendees will be prompted to switch to Phone audio. A conflict renders attendees unable to communicate verbally within the breakout room.

For instructions on switching from VOIP or Just Listening to phone see "How do I change my audio settings?".
