Support For “Delay” before Auto-Answer
Aastra IP Phones now include support for the "delay" parameter (in the Alert-Info
header, used in conjunction with info=alert-autoanswer) in order to facilitate
auto-answer functionality. When present, the value of the "delay" parameter
specifies the length of time in seconds an IP phone rings before a call is
auto-answered. If this value of the "delay" parameter set to 0 (delay=0), then an
incoming call is immediately auto-answered. The absence of the parameter is
considered as ring forever.
In order for the delay functionality to operate, you must first enable the
Auto-Answer feature on the IP phone, as follows:
•
Using the Aastra Web UI, see
Basic Settings->Preferences-> Incoming
Intercom Settings
. Set the “
Auto-Answer
” parameter to
Enabled
.
•
Using the configuration files, set
sip allow auto answer
to
1
.
See the
SIP IP Phone Administrator Guide
for more information on configuring
Auto-Answer using either the Web UI, or the configuration files.
