Latest changs on Teams meeting options
Hi,
Has anybody else noticed that, when Microsoft offers use to modify meeting options on Teams meetings:
But this seems to have negative impact to dial-in users. Even I have a policy:
AllowPSTNUsersToBypassLobby : True
AllowOrganizersToOverrideLobbySettings : False
Dial-in users still end to lobby, until end-user change the meeting options from "people from my organization" to "Everyone".
This is even a bit more sad, that we have defined to not allow end users to override lobby settings (second config on policy), but obviously still they can do it.
And the last part, by default "who can present" is set to "everyone"? 😮
But has anybody found the place to control that?
Could be that the setting is not rolled out yet. Bypass lobby is listed as coming soon:
Hi,
"Everyone" is the only mode that will allow dial-in users to bypass lobby. The settings you do in TAC is what default settings should be used but users can still change them per meeting.
https://www.lync.se/2019/07/meeting-options-in-teams/No, no way currently to change the "Who can present" setting centrally.

Hi LinusCansby
Not sure if I follow you. I believe Microsoft has forgot that "anonymous users" and "dial-in users" are not normally handled in same way.
The TechNet documents says:
-AllowPSTNUsersToBypassLobby
Determines whether a PSTN user joining the meeting is allowed or not to bypass the lobby. If you set this parameter to True, PSTN users are allowed to bypass the lobby as long as an authenticated user is joined to the meeting.(source: Set-CsTeamsMeetingPolicy )
- So if you set -AllowPSTNUsersToBypassLobby $false and a user sets Meeting Options "Who can bypass the lobby" to Everyone. Everyone will bypass the lobby. Even if you set AllowOrganizersToOverrideLobbySettings to $false.
