The present invention is a method of throttling connections to a multipoint controller in a loosely-coupled conference. The loosely-coupled conference includes at least one receiver terminal and a H.323 panel having a multipoint controller and one or more H.323 terminals coupled to the multipoint controller and each to transmit and receive media streams on a multicast address. The method includes the steps of receiving a callable address of a receiver terminal on the multicast address, determining whether sufficient resources are available to allow the receiver terminal to join the panel, and connecting to the receiver terminal using the callable address and allowing the receiver terminal to join the H.323 panel and transmit and receive media streams on the multicast address if sufficient resources are available.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION The present invention is a method of throttling connections to a multipoint controller in a loosely-coupled conference.
The loosely-coupled conference includes at least one receiver terminal and a H.
323 panel having a multipoint controller and one or more H.
323 terminals coupled to the multipoint controller and each to transmit and receive media streams on a multicast address.
The method includes the steps of receiving a callable address of a receiver terminal on the multicast address, determining whether sufficient resources are available to allow the receiver terminal to join the panel, and connecting to the receiver terminal using the callable address and allowing the receiver terminal to join the H.
323 panel and transmit and receive media streams on the multicast address if sufficient resources are available.
