External users only for meeting
Hello Team Gurus - We have partners whom with we did set up federation and allowed only their domain. Now their users are seamlessly accessing Teams participating and can access channels/Files/Apps. ...
- You just update meeting settings to allow it. It lets anyone with a meeting link to join your meetings. They won’t have access to channels etc.

You are correct @ChristianJBergstorm We enabled Cross-tenant access for our partners to collaborate and they can fully access Teams they just need to switch to our tenant in teams.
With this anonymous access setting, does it means we don't need to manage accounts of users (sending email invite to consumer emails like gmail.com or yahoo.com) joining meeting as anonymous users? How does this works? I am so confused with guest users vs anonymous users.

It literally means, anyone that has the link to the meeting can join. No login required. You can just use web browser to join. Or anyone logged into Teams can as well. Not much more to it than that.
