Service Observing
Service Observing allows a specified user, such as a supervisor, to observe or monitor
another user’s calls. In this section, “observer” refers to the supervisor who is observing
calls. “Agent” refers to the extension, attendant, or logical agent being observed. A vector
directory number (VDN) call can also be observed (Category A only). Observers can
observe in listen-only or listen-and-talk mode.
Note that you set up Service Observing to observe a particular extension, not all calls to all
extensions at a station.
Service Observing may be subject to federal, state, or local laws, rules, or regulations or
require the consent of one or both of the call parties. Familiarize yourself and comply with
all applicable laws, rules, and regulations before using this feature.
