Configuring Call Preferences

All users can set auto answer options for calls and specify the maximum number of entries
to appear in the Redial list. Refer to "Placing a Call" on page 11 for more information.
Administrators can configure the maximum call time and bandwidth in Administrator
Preferences : Calls.

Managing Bandwidth

You can specify the maximum bandwidth that an outgoing or incoming call uses by setting
the Outgoing Maximum Bandwidth and Incoming Maximum Bandwidth preferences in
Administrator Preferences : Calls. The value that you choose for the Outgoing Maximum
Bandwidth becomes the maximum value that users can choose in the user interface when
placing a call by dialing a number manually or when specifying a bandwidth in a directory
entry. If a user specifies Auto for the bandwidth when placing a call, the maximum outgoing
bandwidth becomes the starting point for negotiating bandwidth when the call connects.
If you choose Auto as the value for the Outgoing Maximum Bandwidth and Incoming
Maximum Bandwidth preferences and the user chooses Auto for the bandwidth when
placing the call, the system places the call at 1152 kb/s.
The Auto Bandwidth preference addresses how the system responds to packet loss during
a call. When set to Enabled, the default, the system attempts to use the best available
bandwidth after the call connects.

Selecting a Maximum Call Time

You can control the amount of time that a call stays connected by selecting an option for the
Maximum Call Time preference in Administrator Preferences : Calls.
