[cisco-voip] annunciator + howler on v7?

[Matthew Ballard]

I think that’s a standard thing, at least on PSTN lines, when you leave a phone off-hook but not in a phone call for a specific period.  The idea is that if you didn’t hang up the phone after the phone call is disconnected, it generates a loud noise that can be heard if you’re just near the phone.  The assumption is that if you had the phone to your hear, you would’ve hung up already.

so i just got two analog ports working on cucm v7.

i dialed the wrong number and was pleasantly surprised by the annunciator (or whatever they call it) telling me the number was invalid.

i wanted to listen to the whole message, which i did, then heard a busy signal. ok. so far so good.

then i get a howler tone in my ear.

i was in our switchroom, with much machine noise, and my ear still hurts.

why would someone put a howler tone at the end of a message?

our coronary rates are gonna go up.
