Preventing Others from Viewing or Barging a Shared-Line Call
If you share a phone line, you can use the Privacy feature to prevent others who share the line from
viewing or barging (adding themselves to) your calls.
Tips
•
If the phone that shares your line has Privacy enabled, you can make and receive calls using the
shared line as usual.
•
The Privacy feature applies to all shared lines on your phone. Consequently, if you have multiple
shared lines and Privacy is enabled, coworkers will not be able to view or barge calls on any of
your shared lines.
Storing and Retrieving Parked Calls
You can park a call when you want to store the call so that you or someone else can retrieve it from
another phone in the Cisco Unified CallManager system (for example, a phone at a coworker’s desk
or in a conference room).
Note
You have a limited amount of time to retrieve a parked call before it reverts to ringing at the
original number. See your system administrator for details.
