any combination of digits or characters (* or #).

 

 

 

 

This is the phone keypad sequence that a user must press to retrieve a

 

 

 

 

waiting call. Customize‐able. Sequence should be distinct from sequence

 

 

 

 

that might be used to retrieve a waiting call via the PBX or PSTN.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Call Name Identification

Enables CNI function. Call Name Identification is not the same as Caller ID. When enabled on a given

 

 

Enable

VOIP unit currently being controlled by the MultiVOIP interface (the ‘home VOIP’), Call Name

 

 

 

Identification sends an identifier and status information to the administrator of the remote VOIP

 

 

 

involved in the call. The feature operates on a channel‐by‐channel basis (each channel can have a

 

 

 

separate identifier).

 

 

 

 

If the home VOIP is originating the call, only the Calling Party field is applicable. If the home VOIP

 

 

 

is receiving the call, then the Alerting Party, Busy Party, and Connected Party fields are the only

 

 

 

applicable fields (and any or all of these could be enabled for a given VOIP channel). The status

 

 

 

information confirms back to the originator that the home VOIP, is either busy, or ringing, or that the

 

 

 

intended call has been completed and is currently connected.

 

 

 

The identifier and status information are made available to the remote VOIP unit and appear in

 

 

 

the Caller ID field of its Statistics – Call Progress window. (This is how MultiVOIP units handle CNI

 

 

 

messages; in other VOIP brands, H.450 may be implemented differently and then the message

 

 

 

presentation may vary.)
