Configuring a conference call

When you want to invite three or more callers to a call, you can configure a conference call
using the IP Deskphone. The call server handles conference calls. You can join incoming calls
to the conference call, or you can join calls that you initiate.
Note:
Your system administrator or service provider must enable 3-way calling and conference
calls for your IP Deskphone. Contact your service provider or system administrator to
determine if this feature is available.
To configure a conference call while on an active call with more than one other
caller:
When you receive a new call while on a conference call, you can answer, ignore, decline, or
forward the call as you would any call. You can also initiate a new call while on a conference
call in the normal way and return to the conference call after you complete the call. The
conference call continues while you are on the other call.
Note:
If you press the Goodbye key or select Release from the Action menu while on the
conference call, you leave the conference call. The conference call continues with the other
callers.
