New-CsConferencingPolicy
Creates a new conferencing policy for your organization. Conferencing policy determines the features and capabilities that can be used in a conference as well as in a broadcast meeting; this includes everything from whether or not the conference can include IP audio and video to the maximum number of people who can attend a meeting.

[<CommonParameters>] Description
Conferencing is an important part of Skype for Business Online and Skype for Business Server: conferencing enables groups of users to come together online to view slides and video, share applications, exchange files, and otherwise communicate and collaborate.
It's important for administrators to maintain control over conferences and conference settings. In some cases, there might be security concerns: by default, anyone, including unauthenticated users, can participate in meetings and save any of the slides or handouts distributed during those meetings. In other cases, there might be bandwidth concerns: having a multitude of simultaneous meetings, each involving hundreds of participants and each featuring video feeds and file sharing, has the potential to cause problems with your network. In addition, there might be occasional legal concerns. For example, by default meeting participants are allowed to make annotations on shared content; however, these annotations are not saved when the meeting is archived. If your organization is required to keep a record of all electronic communication, you might want to disable annotations.
In Skype for Business Online and Skype for Business Server, conferences are managed using conferencing policy. Conferencing policy determines the features and capabilities that can be used in a conference, including everything from whether or not the conference can include IP audio and video to the maximum number of people who can attend a meeting. In Skype for Business Online, conferencing policy also governs certain aspects of broadcast meetings, in particular, the video bit rate.
- In Skype for Business Online, conferencing policy is managed on a per-user basis. Skype for Business Online provides several built-in conferencing policy instances, and if needed administrators, can create their own policy instances as well, using the New-CsConferencingPolicy cmdlet.
- In Skype for Business Server, conferencing policies can be created at either the site or the per-user scope. If you need to modify property values of the global conferencing policy, use the Set-CsConferencingPolicy cmdlet.
The following parameters are not applicable to Skype for Business Online: ApplicationSharingMode, AudioBitRateKb, Description, EnableMultiViewJoin, EnableOnlineMeetingPromptForLyncResources, EnableReliableConferenceDeletion, FileTransferBitRateKb, Force, Identity, InMemory, MaxMeetingSize, MaxVideoConferenceResolution, PipelineVariable, Tenant, and TotalReceiveVideoBitRateKb.
Examples
EXAMPLE 1: Create a new conferencing policy with per user scope (Skype for Business Online, Skype for Business Server)
New-CsConferencingPolicy -Identity SalesConferencingPolicy -MaxMeetingSize 50The command shown in Example 1 uses the New-CsConferencingPolicy cmdlet to create a new conferencing policy with the Identity SalesConferencingPolicy. This policy will use all the default values for a conferencing policy except one: MaxMeetingSize; in this example, the maximum size for a meeting will be set to 50 instead of the default value of 250.
EXAMPLE 2: Create a new conferencing policy with per site scope (Skype for Business Server)
New-CsConferencingPolicy -Identity site:Redmond -MaxMeetingSize 100 -AllowParticipantControl $FalseIn Example 2, the New-CsConferencingPolicy cmdlet is used to create a conferencing policy with the Identity site:Redmond. In this example two different property values are configured: MaxMeetingSize is set to 100 and AllowParticipantControl is set to False. All other policy properties will use the default values.
Parameters
