A new setting is becoming available for Teams meeting policies to control how dial-in users are handled when joining the meeting.

With this new setting, dial-in users are **bypassing the lobby** by default.

You can control it by editing the **Allow dial-in users to bypass the lobby** setting in the meeting policy from the portal

or by using the Teams PowerShell module by turning on or off the **AllowPSTNUsersToBypassLobby** parameter

**NOTE** the meeting policy CMDlet’s are available with the Skype for Business PowerShell module (available here [https://www.microsoft.com/download/details.aspx?id=39366](https://www.microsoft.com/download/details.aspx?id=39366))

> Import-Module SkypeOnlineConnector
> 
> $sfbSession = New-CsOnlineSession
> 
> Import-PSSession $sfbSession
> 
> Set-CsTeamsMeetingPolicy –Identity <Teams Meeting Policy> –**AllowPSTNUsersToBypassLobby $true or $false**
