Cisco IOS Telephony Service, Version 2.02
Chapter 5 Command Reference
hold-alert (ephone-dn)
Note From the perspective of the originator of the call-on-hold, the shared and the originator keywords
provide the same functionality.
When the shared keyword is enabled, a 1-second burst of ringing is generated for all the idle phones that
share the same line appearance. If the phones are in use, they do not get an audio beep alert. Only the
phone that initiated the call, if busy, hears a call-waiting beep.
Examples The following example shows how to set audible alert notification to idle on the Cisco IP phone for
alerting the user about on-hold calls:
Router(config)# ephone-dn 1
Router(config-ephone-dn)# number 1111
Router(config-ephone-dn)# name phone1
Router(config-ephone-dn)# hold alert 10 idle
Related Commands Command Description
