Target Group: Staff

The DFNconf service enables video, audio, and web conferencing. You need a PC/Mac, laptop, tablet, or smartphone with internet access as well as a headset, speakers, or microphone. You can join a conference via browser, app, or phone. Lectures can also be live-streamed and recorded. In this case, students only see the lecturer. A chat is available for communication with participants. If you want to get to know the service, the DFN association flyer (PDF) provides a good first overview: Click here

Staff at Palucca University can create and manage virtual meeting rooms with up to 100 participants max (display limited to 34 video streams) in the DFNconf portal. The portal offers invitation texts that allow organizers to invite participants to a video conference. Once the organizer enters the room, other participants can join.
