The Executive Name must match the name that is configured in the user’s profile, separated by a space or comma.
For example, if the “Alerting Custom Calling Line ID Name” setting in the BroadWorks Web portal is defined as “[F] Filtrage
-> Dupont, Francois”, the From header of a filtered call sent by the BroadWorks SIP INVITE message will look similar to:
From:”[F] Filtrage -> Dupont, Francois"
<sip:5551234567@as.aastra.com;user=phone>
The “sip execassist filter call prefix”parameter in this scenario could be defined as:
sip execassist filter call prefix: "[F]"
The Assistant’s phone will parse the From header of the SIP INVITE message of an incoming call sent by the call manager
and will identify whether or not the call is a filtered call by the prefix. The prefix itself is not displayed on the phone’s screen
(e.g. in the case outlined above, the phone will only display “Filtrage -> Dupont, Francois”).
The “sip execassist fac call push” parameter is used to specify the Feature Access Code (FAC) that is used to push a filtered
call from the Assistant’s phone back to the Executive’s phone. The FAC should correspond to the value configured for the
“Executive-Assistant Call Push” setting defined in the BroadSoft Web portal.
The “sip execassist fac initiate call” parameter is used to specify the FAC that is used by Assistants to initiate a call on
behalf of the Executive. The FAC should correspond to the value configured for the “Executive-Assistant Initiate Call” set-
ting defined in the BroadSoft Web portal.
Use the following procedure in the configuration files to configure the BroadSoft BroadWorks Executive and Assistant
Services feature
.
Filter Softkey
In addition to the parameters, the “Filter” softkey type has been introduced allowing both Executives and Assistants the
ability to easily activate and deactivate the Executive Call Filtering feature.
Filter Softkey for the Executive’s Phone
The Executive’s phone requires that only one Filter softkey be configured. The Filter softkey’s value can either be left unde-
fined (which will toggle the Executive Call Filtering settings on the call manager via the SIP SUBSCRIPTION/NOTIFY mecha-
nism) or, it can be defined using the following values (which will toggle the settings via an FAC call):
• Executive Call Filtering Activation FAC (e.g. “#61”)
– Used when the Deactivation FAC is in the same format as the Activation FAC but sequentially one number above the
Activation FAC. For example, if the softkey value is defined as #61 (the Activation FAC), the phone will automatically
assume that the Deactivation FAC is “#62” and will use that code to deactivate Executive Call Filtering.
• Executive Call Filtering Activation FAC followed by a semi-colon and then Executive Call Filtering Deactivation FAC (e.g.
“#61;*61” or “#61;#71”)
–
Used when the Activation and Deactivation FACs are not in the same format or when they are not sequential. For
example, if the Activation FAC is configured in the BroadSoft BroadWorks Web portal is “#61” and the Deactivation FAC
is configured as “*61” or “#71”, the softkey value should be defined with the two specific FACs separated by a semi-
Note:
The Alerting Calling Line ID Number can either be configured as the Executive’s Number or Originator’s Number.
Configuration Files
For the specific parameter you can set in the configuration files, see Appendix A, the section, “BroadSoft BroadWorks Executive and Assistant Services
Settings” on pageA-219.
Notes:
• The As-Feature Event Subscription option must also be enabled for the Filter softkey to function. This feature can be
enabled by defining the “sip lineN as-feature-event subscription” parameter as “1” in the configuration files (where
“N” corresponds to the applicable line) or through the phone’s Web UI under Advanced Settings > LineN >
Advanced SIP Settings > As-Feature-Event Subscription. Refer to As-Feature-Event Subscription on page 6-11 for
additional details on the As-Feature Event Subscription feature.
