Remarks

Some trusted applications like Conferencing Auto Attendant (CAA) allow anonymous users to join conferences. In the case of CAA, PSTN users are allowed to join conferences as anonymous users if they do not have a valid corporate PIN and the conference is scheduled to allow anonymous access. For most of the cases, the conference organizer would want specific users to join and therefore the CAA service should challenge those users for the conference passcode. However, in other conferences, like a shareholder meeting, verifying the passcode may not be required. Setting this property to true, will cause CAA to skip challenging the PSTN user for a passcode.

Note that even on setting this property to true, a passcode needs to be provided when scheduling a conference with anonymous access since legacy clients like LiveMeeting do not support optional passcodes. In other words, those legacy clients will always challenge anonymous users for their passcode.
