== Waiting Room ==

The Waiting Room feature allows the host to control when a participant joins the meeting. As the meeting host, you can admit attendees one by one or hold all attendees in the waiting room and admit them all at once. Waiting Room feature can be enabled by either yourself or by the administrator on behalf of you. 
To enable Waiting Room for all of your meetings follow the below steps.
1. Login to Zoom web portal. Then click on Settings menu from the left pane. On the Meeting tab, navigate to the Waiting Room option under In-Meeting (Advanced) and turn on the status toggle.
