Operational Features

SIP Phone Diversion Display

When an outgoing call from the phone is being diverted to another destination (i.e. via call forward), the phone displays the Caller ID (phone number and/or caller name) of the new destination and the reason for the call diversion. Similarly, at the new destination, the Caller ID of the original call destination now displays

Call Diversion Example

1.Tim calls Mark at x400.

2.Mark’s phone is busy.

3.Mark’s phone diverts the incoming call to another destination (Roger @ x 464).

4.Tim’s phone displays name and extension of where the call is being diverted to and reason for diverting the call. The screen scrolls between Screen 1 and Screen 2.

5.Roger’s phone accepts the call and displays the name and number of the phone the incoming call (Tim) and the name (or number) of the original destination (Mark). The screens scroll between Screen 1 and Screen 2.

Note:

If proxy servers exist in the network, it is possible that multiple diversions can take place on the phones. When multiple diversion headers are returned in a single 302 response back to the originating phone, the phone that originated the call (i.e., Tim’s phone in above example) displays the URI of the newest (first encountered) Diversion header, but dis- plays the REASON of the oldest (last encountered) Diversion Header. The phone that receives the diverted call (i.e., Roger’s phone in example above) displays the information of the oldest diverted call (last encountered).

You can enable or disable this feature on a global or per-line basis using the configuration files only.

Configuring SIP Diversion Display on the Phone

Use the following procedures to configure SIP diversion display on the IP phones.

Configuration Files

For specific parameters you can set in the configuration files, see Appendix A, the section, “SIP Diversion Display” on page A-132.

Limitations

•The diversion header assumes that the ID of the 'diverted' caller is passed in a URI style manner.

•This feature relies on the server supporting and generating the Diversion header; the phone does not generate the header itself.

•Diversion header parameters such as counter, limit, privacy, screen, and extension are not recognized or supported by the phone. However, they are still passed along during the diversion process.

Display Name Customization

By default, if the IP phone receives an incoming call and the number of the incoming call matches an entry in the local directory, the IP phone will display the information stored in the local directory instead of the display name of the INVITE. The “directory lookup suppression pattern” allows for the customization of the name displayed on the IP phone’s screen and suppression of the local directory lookup.
