The Push Feature

Audio Messages (RTP) can be pushed. Pushed audio messages can drive the telephone off-hook, if necessary and play the pushed message through the telephone’s Speaker. If the audio push has barge-in priority, the audio message is presented to the user, even if the user is on a call. In this latter case, the far-end is automatically placed on Hold and does not hear the pushed audio message.

A given push can include any or all of the three content forms, but can have only one priority. You can optionally accompany each push with notification tones to draw the user’s attention to the telephone and to the pushed content.

Push Priorities

Barge-in pushes, as the name implies, are meant for information important to get to the user. An example of a barge-in push might be an audio message alerting users that the building is closing because of inclement weather. You can accompany that message with a Web page detailing weather conditions. There are very few circumstances that can prevent barge-in pushes from being presented to the user. Of course, network conditions can prevent actual delivery of the pushed content.

Use normal pushes for less-essential or less time-critical information. An example might be “Mary has birthday cake in her office.” A normal push might or might not be presented to the user. For example, a normal audio push is not presented to a user already on a call. Or, a normal text message would not display until a higher priority message completes.
