Join Teams work meetings from Microsoft Teams (free) and vice versa

Microsoft Teams (Free) users can currently join Teams for work (or school) meetings only as guests, which requires them to use a browser and results in a sub-optimal experience. The new feature rolling out will allow these users to join Teams for work (or school) meetings in one click, without being redirected to the browser or asked to fill in their name/surname. They will also be able to continue collaborating with the meeting organizer and other participants via meeting chat after the meeting.  The feature will work in the opposite way as well, so Teams for work (or school) will just as easily be able to join meetings hosted by a Teams Free user with one click.

OCS Edge issues

Here are a tips regarding an Edge installation I recently deployed.

1. Edge does not support *.domain.whatever certificates. You need one cert per service.

2. Default values on a A/V edge settings on a pool states port 443. This is wrong, as when you install the edge it states 5062. (described in this blogpost).

3. Edge services currently only support the US regional settings. If you experience unexplainable issues, try to log on to the server as the service account and change region to English US (ther is a hotfix for this, but it's not widely available. (You need to contact MS to get it).
Read about it here.

I know you'll find this if you search for it, but I just wanted to collect them here for future referance for myself
