Modules
Overview
This module presents an introduction to NaturalConference features and concepts, including NaturalConference system architecture and the CNF API.
Installation & Configuration
This module teaches procedures for installing and configuring NaturalConference software. It includes details on how to create conferencing resources that "span" multiple DSPs, to increase the number of conferees permitted to join a conference. It shows how to use flags in the configuration file to disable undesired capabilities and thereby save resources. And it introduces utilities for verifying and testing NaturalConference installations.
Performance
This module raises performance considerations and presents several techniques for optimizing the performance of NaturalConference applications.
CNF API
This module introduces the CNF API functions in the context of developing a simple application. It discusses application flow, including the use of other Natural Access APIs in program development, and provides practice in coding using the CNF API
