LBA Ops 2017 Telecon setup
Videocon will be available via CSIRO installation of WebEx. This supports desktop based clients as well as hardware based systems (specifically SIP and .H323). Normal phone dial in is available also, with local numbers around Australia and internationally. If you have limited network bandwidth, you may find the best result is to dial in via phone for audio and rely on WebEx for viewing presentations.
To join from desktop or mobile device
Go to the following URL. Note that the first time you use WebEx you will need to install an App or browser plugin

Linux Support
Linux support is difficult with WebEx. I have never got it working. You could try

But don't assume it will work on the day. CSIRO provides a test system you can try and connect to if you wish to experiment. If you wish to experiment with WebEx, you can also ask Chris to book a test session.
If you have a Linux SIP/.H323 linux client that may work - e.g. ekiga
