On April 16, between 2:25 P.M. ET and 4:12 P.M. ET, the domain zoom.us was not available due to a server block by GoDaddy Registry. This block was the result of a communication error between Zoom’s domain registrar, Markmonitor, and GoDaddy Registry, which resulted in GoDaddy Registry mistakenly shutting down zoom.us domain. Zoom, Markmonitor, and GoDaddy worked quickly to identify and remove the block, which restored service to the domain zoom.us. There was no product, security or network failure at Zoom during the outage. GoDaddy and Markmonitor are working together to prevent this from happening again.

Setting up zoom room that's always on.

I've just signed up for a zoom room licence as I would like to set up a zoom room that is always on so that members in my membership can meet without me having to be there as a host. I can't seem to find the settings I need in room management for participants to be able to join and leave before the host. Or for a meeting to be always on. Can anyone assist. I've un toggled the waiting room setting.

You are specifically using "Zoom Room" to describe a hardware-based conferencing system that exists in a conferencing space, correct? Just want to be sure before providing additional steps, as it seems like you may be using "Zoom Room" to describe a "Zoom Meeting".

 

For ANY Zoom meeting (including those that Zoom Rooms are invited to), you can allow participants to join before/without the host by navigating to zoom.us->Meetings->[Schedule / Edit the given meeting]->Options->Show->Allow Participants to Join Anytime

To set up a Zoom Room that's always on:

  1. Enable "Join Before Host": Go to your Zoom web portal > Settings > Meeting > toggle on Join Before Host. This allows participants to join and leave without you.

  2. Use a Recurring Meeting: Schedule a recurring meeting with no fixed time under the Meetings tab. Share this link with members for continuous access.

  3. Set Up Zoom Room Kiosk Mode: Ensure the Zoom Room device is configured to stay active and not sleep, and enable Auto Start Meetings.

  4. Disable Waiting Room and Passcodes: Make sure the Waiting Room is off and use a simple passcode or none if security isn’t critical.
