•The -AllowAnonymousUsersToJoinMeeting parameter in Set-CsTeamsMeetingPolicy to configure a user level meeting policy
In order to allow anonymous participants to join meetings, you must configure both to allow anonymous meeting join by setting the following values:
•Set-CsTeamsMeetingConfiguration -DisableAnonymousJoin set to $false
•Set-CsTeamsMeetingPolicy -AllowAnonymousUsersToJoinMeeting set to $true for the relevant meeting organizers
