Incoming Intercom Features in Aastra Web UI

Description

Microphone Mute

Allows you to enable or disable the microphone on the IP phone for Intercom calls made by the

 

originating caller.

 

 

Auto Answer

Allows you to enable or disable the IP phone to automatically answer an Intercom call. If auto-

 

answer is enabled on the IP phone, the phone plays a tone (if Play Warning Tone is enabled) to

 

alert the user before answering the intercom call. If auto-answer is disabled, the phone treats the

 

incoming intercom call as a normal call.

 

 

Play Warning Tone

Allows you to enable or disable a warning tone to play when the phone receives an incoming

 

intercom call on an active line.

 

 

Allow Barge In

Allows you to enable or disable how the phone handles incoming intercom calls while the phone

 

is on an active call.

 

 

Note:
