Incoming and outgoing calls in Other phone mode

Last Updated : Mar 05, 2024 |

For an incoming call in the Other Phone mode:

  • If the other phone device is on-hook, you can answer the call on the other phone device.

  • If the other phone device is off-hook, you can answer the call on the Avaya Workplace Client if it has Call Waiting enabled.

  • Enabling the Call Waiting setting in Avaya Workplace Client, you can answer a second incoming call from the Avaya Workplace Client while on an active call. Avaya Workplace Client places the active call on hold.

  • If there are connect calls, logging out of Avaya Workplace Client disconnects all the calls.

  • A network failure disconnecting Avaya Workplace Client also disconnects all calls.

Outgoing calls

When making a call using the Avaya Workplace Client:

  • If the other phone is on-hook, then the call rings it, and when answered, the IP Office initiates the call to the dialed number.

  • If the other phone is off-hook, then the call is initiated directly to the remote endpoint.

  • During an active call, if you start another call, the remote device directly rings, and the active call goes on hold.
