Accepting a waiting call and including the caller in the conference.

Toggling between the conference and a consulta- tion call or waiting call.

Holding a consultation call during a conference and adding it to the conference.

Interconnecting conference members from two in- dependent conferences via a distant network.

Putting the conference on hold, if line keys are in- stalled.

The functions listed above can be carried out by all con- ference members at the same time.
