[cisco-voip] FXO hookflash / conferencing - CM 7.1

[Jack Martin]

I believe what you are describing is expected behavior of a line appearancve configured with hookflash.

Are you trying the ad-hoc conference from the same line appearence?  Is the CME configured as a key-system?

If you park the first outbound call then place a second outbound call, are you able to conference in the parked call?

Hello,

I’m running into an issue 7.1 that seemed pretty easy at first, but I’m hitting a wall now.  We have a remote site that had poor Internet connectivity and decided to go with an 881 with local FXO resources and H323 back to the CM.  The lines were ordered by the customer with call-waiting and caller-id on the call-waiting line.  The issue is with inbound call-waiting, the customer can hear the inbound call, but cannot pick it up.  With CME, you could implement the FLASH softkey and simulate the POTS behavior.  TAC has directed me to the following bug / feature request that has existed since 3.1(1) http://tools.cisco.com/Support/BugToolKit/search/getBugDetails.do?method=fetchBugDetails&bugId=CSCdv71088 .  As for the conferencing portion, does CM also have problem initiating a “3-way” call?  It seems I can make an outbound FXO call and then conference in an on-net call, but I can’t make two outbound calls.

Thanks,

-ryan
