Handling a call by using MDA
About this task
The phone supports Multiple Device Access (MDA) in which you can register up to 10 SIP devices
with your extension. If you register to multiple devices with the same extension, you can switch
between devices during an active call. The configuration is done on Avaya Aura
®
Session
Manager.
This feature is only available in an Avaya Aura
®
environment.
Before you begin
Ensure that the system administrator activates the option for your extension.
Procedure
1. Answer or initiate a call from the first phone.
2. Press Bridge on the first phone to switch to the second phone.
The bridged call appears on the second MDA phone. However, limited service icon might
appear briefly if your MDA phone joining the call has a different signalling mode address
family. This will disappear automatically after the MDA phone joining the call switches and
starts using the existing calls signalling mode address family.
Call Parking
With the Call Parking feature, you can put an active call on hold and resume the call from any
other phone in your organization. The administrator must activate this feature in your phone to
park a call in your extension. You can dial your extension number from any other phone to retrieve
the call.
