Call Waiting Tone
You can also enable or disable the playing of a short “call waiting tone" when there is an incoming call on your phone
using the “play call waiting tone” parameter. This feature is enabled by default. If you have Call Waiting enabled, and a
call comes into the line for which you are on an active call, a tone is audible to notify you of that incoming call.
A User or Administrator can configure this feature using the Aastra Web UI. An Administrator can also configure this fea-
ture using the configuration files.
