Ringtone is used to define a simple class of ring to be applied based on some credentials that are usually
carried within the network protocol. The ring class includes parameters such as call-waiting and ringer
index, if appropriate. The ring class can use one of four types of ring that are defined as follows:
● ring Play a specified ring pattern or call waiting indication
● visual Provide only a visual indication (no audio) of an incoming call, no ringer needs to be
specified
● answer Provide auto-answer on an incoming call
● ring-answer Provide auto-answer on an incoming call after a certain number of rings
Note: Using the Answer Ring Type
The auto-answer on incoming call is currently only applied if there is no other call in progress on the
phone at the time.
The phone supports the following ring classes: default, visual, answerMute, autoAnswer,
ringAnswerMute, ringAutoAnswer, internal, external, emergency, precedence, splash, and
custom<y> where y is 1 to 17.
