Why each option
Ad-hoc conferencing requires no pre-scheduling; Cisco TelePresence Multiway and the conference button on a Cisco IP Phone both allow users to escalate calls into multipoint conferences on the spot, while CTMS Scheduler and Booking tabs are scheduled methods.
Cisco TelePresence Multiway allows users to escalate an active point-to-point TelePresence call into a full multipoint conference by invoking an MCU on-the-fly, requiring no advance scheduling in CTMS and making it a true ad-hoc multipoint conferencing solution.
Using the CTMS Scheduler to schedule a conference call is by definition a pre-planned, scheduled conferencing method - not an ad-hoc one.
Using the Booking tab in CTMS to configure a new conference requires advance reservation of resources and scheduling, which is the opposite of an ad-hoc conference.
The Administrative Tools > Configuration > Conference Settings section in CTMS is used for global system configuration and policy management, not for initiating or enabling ad-hoc conferences.
Pressing the conference button on a Cisco Unified IP Phone 8941 to add a third party is a native ad-hoc call escalation feature of Cisco Unified Communications Manager that requires no prior scheduling or administrative setup to initiate.
