Restrict dial-in users from bypassing a meeting lobby

Description​

Dial-in users aren’t authenticated though the Teams app. Increase the security of your meetings by preventing these unknown users from bypassing the lobby and immediately joining the meeting.

How to fix​

  1. Log into Microsoft Teams Admin Center
  2. In the left navigation, go to Meetings > Meeting Policies
  3. Under Manage Policies, select a group/direct policy
  4. Under the Meeting join & lobby, toggle "Allow dial-in users to bypass the lobby" to Off
  5. You’ll need to change this setting for each group/direct policy
