I don't see the "Peer to Peer connection while only 2 people in a meeting" option

I'm trying to enable Peer to Peer (P2P) connection with my personal account, but I don't see the "Peer to Peer connection while only 2 people in a meeting" option.

 

This website says the option is under Account Management -> Account Settings, but I don't even see Account Settings in the first place.

I also searched for the option under Settings -> Meeting (Advanced) but didn't find the option either.

 

Q1. Is the function available for a personal account owner?

Q2. If available, how can I enable the P2P connection?

 

Thank you so much for your support in advance!

    Hi @SA79 , thanks for your contribution to the Zoom Community!

    In order to enable this setting, you must be the Account owner or have admin privileges of a paid account.

    Note: Peer-to-peer connections are only supported when both meeting participants are on the same local network.

    Hi @CarlaA,

    Do both participants in the meeting on the same local network need to be the account owner or have admin privileges of a paid account?

    Once the setting is enabled any 1:1 meetings on the same local network should automatically choose a P2P connection 🙂

    Hi @CarlaA,

     

    Thank you so much for your response!

    I'll upgrade my account to Zoom Pro and see if I can enable the P2P connection.
