120  VoIP Subscriber Gateways 
 
Access  to  this  service  is  established  via  subscriber  port  settings  menu  'FXS'  by  selecting 
'Attended  calltransfer',  'Unattended  calltransfer',  or  'Local  Calltransfer'  in  'Flash  transfer'  field  and 
selecting 'Call waiting' checkbox. 
Service usage: 
If you receive a new call while being in a call state, you may do the following: 
-  R 0 — reject a new call; 
-  R 1 — answer the waiting call; 
-  R 2 — switch to a new call; 
-  R – short clearback (flash). 
4.3 Three-way conference call 
Three-way  conference  is  a  service,  that  enables  simultaneous  phone  communication  for  3 
subscribers. For entering conference mode, see Section Call transfer. 
Subscriber that started the conference seems to be its initiator; two other subscribers are the 
participants. 
Two  modes  are  available:  local  and  remote;  in  the  first  mode,  the  conference  is  established 
locally by the initiator subscriber; in the second, the conference is established using a remote server, 
the so-called conference server. 
4.3.1  Local conference 
In  the  conference  mode, short  clearback  'flash'  pressed  by  the  initiator  is  ignored.  Signalling 
protocol  messages,  received  from  the  participants  and  intended  to  put  the  initiator  side  into  hold 
mode, force this participant to leave the conference. At that, the initiator and the second participant 
will switch into the ordinary two-party call mode.  
The  conference terminates,  when  initiator  leaves;  in  this  case,  both  participants  will  receive 
clearback  message.  If  one  of  the  participants  leaves  the  conference,  the  initiator  and  the  second 
participant will switch into a standard two-party call. Short flash clearback is processed as described in 
Sections 4.1 and 4.2. 
Figure below shows an algorithm of '3-way conference' service performed locally by the initiator 
via SIP protocol.
