Abstract

See full text

A conferencing system includes a number of devices that can participate in an audio conference using a conference bridge. Responding to a human or automated conference administrator, the bridge determines that audio content of media from a particular device is undesirable, and disables media from the particular device. If appropriate, the device receives prompts to rejoin the conference at a later time.
