MS-700 Manage Meetings and Calling Practice Question
You are a Teams administrator. You need to ensure that all users in your organization can schedule Teams meetings that include a dial-in number for participants who are unable to join via the Teams app. What should you configure?
⚠ Common exam trap
Test-takers frequently confuse Audio Conferencing with Calling Plans or Direct Routing, which are for different purposes.
Answer choices
Why each option matters
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
✓
Assign an Audio Conferencing license to each user and enable Audio Conferencing in the meeting policy.
To provide dial-in numbers for Teams meetings, users must have an Audio Conferencing license, and the meeting policy must have audio conferencing enabled. This allows meeting organizers to include dial-in information in invitations. Calling Plans and Direct Routing are for PSTN calling, not for dial-in conferencing. Dial plans are for number normalization in calling scenarios.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✓
Assign an Audio Conferencing license to each user and enable Audio Conferencing in the meeting policy.
Why this is correct
Audio Conferencing allows participants to join Teams meetings via a dial-in number. To enable this, each user who schedules meetings must have an Audio Conferencing license, and the meeting policy must allow audio conferencing. This is the correct configuration to provide dial-in numbers for meetings.
- ✗
Set up Direct Routing and assign a voice routing policy to each user.
Why it's wrong here
Direct Routing enables users to make and receive PSTN calls using their own SBC, but it does not provide dial-in conferencing capabilities. Dial-in conferencing requires Audio Conferencing licenses and configuration. Direct Routing alone would not give participants a dial-in number for meetings.
- ✗
Configure a Calling Plan for each user and enable toll-free dial-in.
Why it's wrong here
Calling Plans provide PSTN connectivity for making and receiving calls, but they do not automatically enable dial-in conferencing for meetings. Toll-free dial-in is a feature of Audio Conferencing, not Calling Plans. While a Calling Plan may be required for some conferencing features, the core requirement is an Audio Conferencing license.
- ✗
Enable 'Dial-in bypass' in the Teams admin center and assign a dial plan.
Why it's wrong here
Dial-in bypass is not a feature in Teams. Dial plans are used for number normalization in calling scenarios, not for enabling dial-in conferencing. The correct approach is to assign Audio Conferencing licenses and enable the feature in meeting policies.
