Delegate cannot create Skype meetings
Hi Everyone, I have a strange situation in my company, that a delegete cannot create meetings on behalf of the delegator. There are permisisons set to Editor under Outlook -> Account Settings -> Delegate Access. Also Delegated access set under Skype for business -> Tools -> Options -> Call forwarding -> Edit my delegate members Skype client policy under the user exists has a setting "EnableExchangeDelegateSync = True" Delegator has signed out from Skype and signed back in to confirm the access, but when the delegate tries to create a meeting on Delegator calendar gets a message, that permissions are denied. Do you have any ideas what else can be missing? I have a lot of other users setup the same way and they are working as expected, except the one that I am describing here. Any tips and tricks what else can be done are highly welcome!
PSTN calls drop with-in 15 - 30 mins with Audiocodes SBC
Hi Community, Recently, I have come across a scenario worth sharing. PSTN calls drops after 15 mins or 30 mins with Audio Codes SBC or Gateway. This can be related or occur due to numerous reason, however if everything is in place (Network to Configuration) and still the call fails, then you can try the below and if it makes the difference. User makes PSTN call > the flow and connectivity is established > after 15 or 30 mins you see BYE message generated resulting in call drop. changing/modifying the "RTCPActiveCalls" and "EnableSessionTimer" may help or simple does't make any difference. Upon isolation, found that issue is mostly triggered due to a setting in Audio Codes S.B.C "Reset SRTP Upon Re-Key" is enabled (usually disabled by default) By going in to the IP profiles > disabling the setting in AudioCodes the issue was resolved and calls no longer were dropped. P.S - This solution may or may not help you (no harm in trying), But its best recommended to contact support and take assistance if needed 🙂

Skype for Business 2015 and LDAP
Do Skype for Business 2015 uses LDAP to communicate to Active Directory (Domain Controllers) and clients? checking first before we disable LDAP in favour of LDAPS. If yes, please help to provide documents or how do I check if LDAP is really in used? Also, if yes, how can we change LDAP to LDAPS communication if we want to disable LDAP? Thanks in advance.
Call queue-Transferring calls to a Sfb user not working
Transferring calls to a Sfb user, when received from a call queue for hybrid users (PSTN on prem), is not working since this week. Anyone experiencing this behavior? "The call couldn't be transferred. Call was no transferred because there was a problem with the calling service" Calling directly SIP user- transferring works. I'm am fully online with PSTN and DID from MS and transferring from the call queue is working for me, this behavior is only for users who have DID and PSTN on prem. I opened a ticket with MS
SfB broadcast : producer controls
Originally to act as a producer in the Broadcast facility one had to be preselected as a producer by the meeting creator. That has now gone away, and any inner meeting participant can be a producer and control what gets broadcast to the wider audience in the "outer meeting". I get why they have done that from an ease of user adoption point of view. However, I can see situations where that would make me nervous. I major conference and an external speaker who may simply not be very computer savy could seriously mess up the results. As it currently is seems a sensible default to me but a meeting creator's switch to pre specify producers would be sensible. Also Iwonder whether there are any API's or SDK's or similar interfaces which will expose the producer controls to third party software and even hardware suppliers on the way - If I was using it a lot the ability to have a physical button for camera selection etc woud be very attractive and I could also see that being used with other camer controls such as pan, tilt, zoom etc. A Skype for Business professional producers panel would be an awsome addition.We invite you to become a Skype for Business guest blogger!

We invite you to share with our community. If you have a topic you'd like to write about, please PM me with the subject and a brief outline of what it is you'd like to write about and we will work with you to see if we can get your topic on the schedule.
