Abstract
A conferencing device receives an indication that a mobile device is in proximity to the conferencing device. The conferencing device receives information, directly from the mobile device, that indicates that the conferencing device is to establish or join a communication session with one or more communication endpoints. The information that indicates that the first conferencing device is to establish or join the communication session with the one or more communication endpoints is based on information that is personal to a user of the mobile device. Once the communication session is established, the conferencing device communicates with the one or more communication endpoints in the communication session. In an alternative embodiment, a printer/scanner can be managed based on personal information received directly from the mobile device.
