Call Park


The Call Park feature allows you to place a call on hold, so it can be retrieved from another phone in the system. For example, if you are on an active call at your phone, you can park the call to a call park extension such as 1234. Someone on another phone in your system can then dial 1234 to retrieve the call.

The Call Park feature works within a Cisco CallManager cluster as well as between clusters. Each Cisco CallManager in a cluster can have call park extension numbers.

You can define either a single directory number or a range of directory numbers for use as call park extension numbers. Valid call park extension numbers comprise integers and characters. You can park only one call at each call park extension number.
