Configuring Call Waiting Tone
Use the following procedures to configure the Call Waiting Tone feature on the IP phone.
Call Waiting Tone Period

on an active call using the parameter “

tone only once on the active call. When the incoming caller hangs up, the call waiting tone stops on the existing active
call.
