Goodbye Key Cancels Incoming Calls

The 57i has a feature that allows you to configure the Goodbye key to drop a second incoming call or ignore incoming calls presented to the phone when you are on an active call. The parameter is called "Goodbye Key Cancels Incoming Call" and is configurable via the Aastra Web UI.

If you enable this parameter, which is the default, pressing the Goodbye key rejects calls coming into the phone while you are on an active call. When you disable this parameter, pressing the Goodbye key hangs up the active call.

If you disable this feature, and the phone receives another call when an active call is already present., the phone displays a softkey 1 as “Answer” and softkey 2 as “Ignore”.
