Using Avaya Network Features with Video Calls
Depending on how your system is configured, you might be able to use
Avaya® telephony network features such as call forwarding, transferring
calls, and adding additional sites in an audio-only conference.
To activate call forwarding:
1Make sure that the Polycom system is not in a call.
2From the Place a Call screen on the Polycom system, dial the Feature
Access Code provided by the Avaya Communication Manager
administrator, followed by the E.164 extension of the system to which
you want to forward the calls. For example, dial *22016 if *2 is the Feature
Access Code and 2016 is the system E.164.
3Wait for confirmation beeps.
To deactivate call forwarding:
1From the Polycom system Place a Call screen, dial the Feature Access
Code provided by the Avaya Communication Manager administrator.
For example, #2 if #2 is the Feature Access Code for disabling call
forwarding.
2Wait for confirmation beeps.
To transfer a call:
1While in a call, press on your Polycom system remote control to
access the tone pad.
2Press Select to activate flash hook. The first far-site system is placed
on hold.
3Wait for a dial tone, and then dial the extension of the far-site system to
which you want to transfer the call. The call connects both audio and
video between the local system and the second far-site system. The first
far-site system is still on hold.
4Hang up the near-site system. The two far-site systems are now
connected in a call with audio and video, if the capabilities are present.
