Call Waiting Tone Period

A User or Administrator can specify a specific time period (in seconds) for the call waiting tone to play at regular intervals on an active call using the parameter “call waiting tone period”. A value of “0” is the default and plays the call waiting tone only once on the active call. When the incoming caller hangs up, the call waiting tone stops on the existing active call.

You can enable or disable this feature in the configuration files or in the Aastra Web UI.
