- Getting started
  For a quick overview of the Sametime meeting client features and components, see our Quick Start Guide. If you require step-by-step instructions for the meeting client interface, you can continue to the topic of interest.
- Using Sametime Meetings
  This section focuses on the in-meeting features that are accessible by default to all meeting participants.
- Managing meetings
  This section focuses on the additional controls that are available to meeting owners and moderators.
  - Admitting participants during a meeting
    The waiting room feature requires participants to remain in a waiting area before they are admitted in to the meeting. When enabled, moderators can control when a participant joins a meeting. Moderators can allow authenticated users to bypass the waiting room and go directly in to the meeting. For more information on how to enable the waiting room, refer to t_create_moderated.html and meetings_moderated_management.html.
  - Starting a YouTube live stream session
    Meeting moderators can start a live stream on a YouTube channel. Live stream sessions are typically lecture-style and do not allow participant interaction.
  - Recording a meeting
    When enabled, and depending on the configuration, any authenticated user can record a meeting. You can leave if you do not consent to be recorded during the meeting. By default, a link is generated to the chat immediately after the recording has ended. Authenticated users can access the recording link from the meeting room. Guests, on the other hand, do not have access to the recordings. The meeting recording links are accessible only in the owner's recording list irrespective of whether he shared it or not.
  - Locking the meeting
    This section provides information on how the user can lock the meeting.
  - Ending the meeting
    Meeting owners and moderators can hang up and end the meeting at any given time.
