Multiple Line Keys per Registration
More than one Line Key can be allocated to a single registration (phone
number or line) on SoundPoint IP phones. The number of Line Keys allocated
per registration is configurable.
Configuration changes can performed centrally at the boot server or locally:
Multiple Call Appearances
The phone supports multiple concurrent calls. The hold feature can be used to
pause activity on one call and switch to another call. The number of concurrent
calls per line key is configurable. Each registration can have more than one line
key assigned to it (refer to the previous section, Multiple Line Keys per
Registration ).
Configuration changes can performed centrally at the boot server or locally:
Central
(boot server)
Configuration file:
phone1.cfg Specify the number of line keys to assign per registration.
• For more information, refer to Registration <reg/> on page A-107 .
Local Web Server
(if enabled)
Specify the number of line keys to assign per registration.
Navigate to http://<phoneIPAddress>/reg.htm
Changes are saved to local flash and backed up to <Ethernet
address>-phone.cfg on the boot server. Changes will permanently
override global settings unless deleted through the Reset Local
Config menu selection and the <Ethernet address>-phone.cfg is
removed from the boot server.
Local Phone User
Interface Specify the number of line keys to assign per registration using the
SIP Configuration menu. Either the Web Server or the boot server
configuration files or the local phone user interface should be used to
configure registrations, not a mixture of these options. When the SIP
Configuration menu is used, it is assumed that all registrations use
the same server.
Central
(boot server)
Configuration file:
sip.cfg Specify the default number of calls that can be active or on hold per
line key.
• For more information, refer to Call Handling Configuration <call/>
on page A-64 .
Configuration file:
phone1.cfg Specify per-registration the number of calls that can be active or on
hold per line key assigned to that registration. This will override the
default value specified in sip.cfg.
• For more information, refer to Registration <reg/> on page A-107 .
