Description

Feature Dial Services Codes

These codes tell the Linksys IP phone what to do when the user is listening to the first or second dial tone.

One or more *code can be configured into this parameter, such as *72, or *72*74*67*82, etc. Max total length is 79 chars. This parameter applies when the user has a dial tone (first or second dial tone). Enter *code (and the following target number according to current dial plan) entered at the dial tone triggers the Linksys IP phone to call the target number prepended by the *code. For example, after user dials *72, the Linksys IP phone plays a prompt tone awaiting the user to enter a valid target number. When a complete number is entered, the Linksys IP phone sends a INVITE to *72<target_number> as in a normal call. This feature allows the proxy to process features like call forward (*72) or BLock Caller ID (*67).

The *codes should not conflict with any of the other vertical service codes internally processed by the Linksys IP phone. You can empty the corresponding *code that you do not want to Linksys IP phone to process.

You can add a parameter to each *code in Features Dial Services Codes to indicate what tone to play after the *code is entered, such as *72‘c‘*67‘p‘. Below are a list of allowed tone parameters (note the use of back quotes surrounding the parameter w/o spaces)

•‘c‘ = <Cfwd Dial Tone>

•‘d‘ = <Dial Tone>

•‘m‘ = <MWI Dial Tone>

•‘o‘ = <Outside Dial Tone>

•‘p‘ = <Prompt Dial Tone>

•‘s‘ = <Second Dial Tone>

•‘x‘ = No tones are place, x is any digit not used above

If no tone parameter is specified, the Linksys IP phone plays Prompt tone by default.

If the *code is not to be followed by a phone number, such as *73 to cancel call forwarding, do not include it in this parameter. In that case, simple add that *code in the dial plan and the Linksys IP phone send INVITE *73@..... as usual when user dials *73.

Vertical Service Announcement Codes

•Service Annc (Annoucement) Base Number: Defaults to blank.
