Blocking call forwarding of local calls—Forwarding of local (internal) calls from other Cisco Unified CME ephones can be blocked. External calls will continue to be forwarded as specified by the configuration for the ephone-dns. Selective call forwarding—Call forwarding for busy and no-answer ephone-dns can be applied selectively based on the number that a caller dials for a particular ephone-dn: the primary number, the secondary number, or either of those numbers expanded through the use of a dial-plan pattern.	Configuring Call Transfer and Forwarding
	Call Park	Call park blocked per ephone—Individual ephones can be blocked from parking calls at call-park slots. Call park redirect—You can specify that calls use the H.450 or SIP Refer method of call forwarding or transfer to park calls and to pick up calls from park. Dedicated call-park slots—A private call-park slot can be configured for each ephone. Direct pickup of parked call on monitored park slot —A call that is parked on a monitored call-park slot can be picked up by pressing the assigned monitor button.	Configuring Call Park
	Call Pickup	Directed call pickup disable—The no service directed-pickup command globally disables directed call pickup and changes the action of the PickUp soft key to invoke local group pickup rather than directed call pickup.	Configuring Call-Coverage Features
	Call Transfer	Call transfer blocking—When call transfers to phones outside the Cisco Unified CME system have been globally enabled, you can block them for individual ephones. Call transfer destination digits limited—When call transfers to phones outside the Cisco Unified CME system have been globally enabled, you can limit the number of digits that can be dialed when transferring a call. transfer-system command—The command default has been changed from the blind keyword to the full-consult keyword, making H.450.2 consultative transfer the default method. QSIG supplementary services support—H.450 supplementary services features allow Cisco Unified CME phones to use QSIG to interwork with PBX phones. IP phones can use a PBX message center with proper MWI notifications.	Configuring Call Transfer and Forwarding

They are supported in the appropriate Cisco IOS commands.	Cisco Unified Communications Manager Express 4.0 Supported Firmware, Platforms, Memory, and Voice Products
	Conferencing	Drop last party or keep parties connected—New options specify whether the last party that joined a conference can be dropped from the conference and whether the remaining two parties should be allowed to continue their connection after the conference initiator has left the conference. Improved conference display—A Cisco Unified IP phone that is connected to a three-way conference displays "Conference." No special configuration is required.	Configuring Conferencing
	Feature Access Codes	Feature Access Code (FAC) support—The same FACs that are used by analog phones can be enabled for IP phones. In addition, standard FACs can be customized and aliases can be created to simplify the dialing of a FAC and any additional digits that are required to activate the feature.	Configuring Feature Access Codes
	Headset Auto-Answer	Headset auto-answer—When the headset key on a phone is activated, lines on the phone that are specified for headset auto-answer will automatically connect to incoming calls after playing an alerting tone to notify the phone user of the incoming call. This feature is available on Cisco Unified IP Phones 7940G, 7960G, 7970G, and 7971G-GE.	Configuring Headset Auto-Answer
	Hunt Groups	Agent status control—Hunt group agents can put their phones in a not-ready state to temporarily suspend the receiving of hunt group calls by using the HLog soft key. A new FAC can toggle ready and not-ready state. Automatic agent not-ready status—The criterion for placing a hunt group agent into not-ready status (previously called automatic logout) was changed. If an agent does not answer the number of consecutive hunt-group calls that you specify in the auto logout command, the agent's ephone-dn is put into not-ready status (logged out) and will not receive further hunt group calls. Call hold statistics—New fields describing the length of time that calls spend in the hold state are in the statistical reports for Cisco Unified CME B-ACD applications. See the show ephone-hunt statistics command and the hunt-group report url command in Cisco Unified CME B-ACD and Tcl Call-Handling Applications. Dynamic hunt group membership—Agents can join or leave a hunt group using standard or custom FACs when wildcard slots are configured for hunt groups and the agents' ephone-dns are authorized to join hunt groups. Change in hops command default—The maximum number of hops allowed by a hunt group is automatically adjusted to reflect the dynamically changing number of members. Enhanced display of ephone hunt-group information—A text string can be added to provide information in configuration output and to display on IP phones when a hunt-group call is ringing or answered, or when all hunt-group members are logged out. Local call forwarding restriction in sequential ephone hunt groups—In sequential ephone-hunt groups, local (internal) calls to the hunt group can be prevented from being forwarded beyond the first ephone-dn in the hunt group.	Configuring Call-Coverage Features
	Hunt Groups	Longest-idle hunt group improvement—The from-ring command specifies that on-hook time stamps should be updated when a call rings an agent and when a call is answered by an agent. Maximum number of agents per hunt group has increased from 10 to 20. No special configuration is required. Maximum number of hunt groups per Cisco Unified CME system has increased from 10 to 100. No special configuration is required. No-answer timeout enhancements—No-answer timeouts in ephone hunt groups can be set individually for each ephone-dn in the list. A maximum cumulative no-answer timeout can be also be set. Restricting presentation of calls to idle or on-hook phones—The presentation of hunt group calls can be restricted to hunt-group members on phones that are idle or on-hook. This enhancement considers all lines on the phone, both members of the hunt group and nonmembers, when restricting presentation of hunt group calls. Return to a secondary destination in an ephone hunt group after call park—Calls parked by hunt group agents can be returned to a different entry point in the hunt group. Return to transferring party on no answer in an ephone hunt group—A call that was transferred into a hunt group and was not answered can be returned to the party that transferred it to the hunt group instead of being sent to voice mail or another final destination.	Configuring Call-Coverage Features
	Localization	Multiple user locales and network locales—Up to five user and network locales are supported. User-defined user locales and network locales— User-defined locales can be added for supported phones.	Configuring Localization Support
	Music on Hold	Music on hold (MOH) for internal calls—Internal callers (those making calls between extensions in the same Cisco Unified CME system) hear music when they are on hold or are being transferred. The mulitcast moh command must be used to enable the flow of packets to the subnet on which the phones are located. Internal extensions that are connected through an analog voice gateway or through a WAN (remote extensions) do not hear MOH on internal calls. The ability to disable multicast MOH per phone was introduced, using the no multicast-moh command in ephone or ephone-template configuration mode.	Configuring Music on Hold
	Overlaid Ephone-dns	Overlaid ephone-dns—The maximum number of overlaid ephone-dns per ephone button has increased from 10 to 25. No special configuration is required. Overlaid ephone-dn call-waiting display—The number of waiting calls that can be displayed for overlaid ephone-dns that have call waiting configured has been increased to six for the Cisco IP Phone 7940G, 7941G, 7941G-GE, 7960G, 7961G, 7961G-GE, 7970G, and 7971G-GE. The overlaid ephone-dns must be configured on the phone using the button command and the c keyword. Overlaid ephone-dn call overflow to other buttons—One or more buttons can be dedicated to serve as expansion, or overflow, buttons for another button on the same Cisco Unified IP phone that has overlaid ephone-dns. A call to an overlay button that is busy with an active call will roll over to the next available expansion button.	Configuring Call-Coverage Features
	Phone Support	Cisco IP Communicator is a software-based application that appears on a user's computer monitor as a graphical, display-based IP phone with a color screen, a key pad, feature buttons, and soft keys. Cisco Unified CME supports Cisco IP Communicator 2.0 and later versions. Remote teleworker phone—Teleworkers can connect remote phones over a WAN and be directly supported by Cisco Unified CME.	Configuring Phones to Make Basic Calls
	Ring Tones	Distinctive ringing—An extension's ring patterns can be set to distinguish among internal, external, and feature calls.	Configuring Ring Tones
	Security	Cisco Unified CME phone authentication is a security infrastructure for providing secure Skinny Client Control Protocol (SCCP) signaling between Cisco Unified CME and IP phones.	Configuring Security
	Soft keys	Feature blocking—The features associated with the following soft keys can be individually blocked per ephone: CFwdAll, Confrn, GpickUp, Park, PickUp, and Trnsfer. The soft key is not removed, but it does not function. Soft-key control for hold state—The soft keys that are available while a call is on hold can be modified. The NewCall and Resume soft keys are normally available when a phone has a call on hold, but a template can be applied to the phone to remove these soft keys.	Customizing Soft Keys
	Speed Dial	Bulk-loading of speed-dial numbers—Text files with lists of speed-dial numbers can be loaded into system flash or a URL. The files can hold up to 10,000 numbers and can be applied to all ephones or to specific ephones.	Configuring Speed Dial
	System-Level Parameters	Disabling automatic phone registration—Normally, Cisco Unified CME allocates an ephone slot to any ephone that connects to the system. To prevent unauthorized registrations, the no auto-reg-ephone command prevents any ephone from registering with Cisco Unified CME if its MAC address is not explicitly listed in the configuration. External storage of configuration files and per-phone configuration files—Phone configuration files can be stored on an external TFTP server to offload the TFTP server function of the Cisco Unified CME router. This additional storage space permits the use of per-phone configuration files, which can be used to specify different user locales and network locales for phones. Failover to Redundant Router—Sites can be set up with a primary and secondary Cisco Unified CME router to provide redundant Cisco Unified CME capability. Phones automatically register at the secondary router if the primary router fails and later rehome to the primary router when it is operational again.	Configuring System-Level Parameters
	Templates	Maximum number of ephone templates that can be defined has increased from 5 to 20. No special configuration is required. New commands available for ephone templates—Ephone templates were previously introduced to allow system administrators to control the display of soft keys in various call states on individual ephones. Their role has been expanded to allow you to define a set of ephone parameter values that can be assigned to one or more phones in a single step. Ephone-dn templates are introduced to allow administrators to easily apply sets of configured parameters to individual ephone-dns. Up to 15 ephone-dn templates can be defined.	Creating Templates
	Video Support	Video support for SCCP-based endpoints—This feature adds video support to allow you to pass a video stream with a voice call, between video-capable SCCP endpoints and between SCCP and H.323 endpoints. Through the Cisco Unified CME router, the video-capable endpoints can communicate with each other locally, to a remote H.323 endpoint through a gateway, or through an H.323 network.	Configuring Video Support for SCCP-Based Endpoints
	Voice Mail	Line-selectable MWI—Previously, the message-waiting indication (MWI) lamp on a phone could only indicate when messages were waiting for the primary number on a phone. Now any phone line can be designated during configuration. Mailbox selection policy for voice-mail servers—A policy can be set for selecting the mailbox to use for calls that are diverted one or more times within a Cisco Unified CME system before being sent to a Cisco Unity Express, Cisco Unity, or PBX voice-mail pilot number. Prefix option for SIP unsolicited MWI Notify messages—Central voice-message servers that provide mailboxes for multiple Cisco Unified CME sites may use site codes or prefixes to distinguish among similarly numbered ranges of extensions at different sites. You can specify the prefix for your site so that central mailbox numbers are correctly converted to your extension numbers.	Integrating Voice Mail
	XML Interface	XML interface enhancements—An eXtensible Markup Language (XML) application program interface (API) is provided to supply data from Cisco Unified CME to management software. In Cisco Unified CME 4.0 and later versions, all Cisco Unified CME features have XML support.	Configuring the XML API

DISCLAIMER: The use of monitoring, recording, or listening devices to eavesdrop, monitor, retrieve, or record phone conversations or other sound activities, whether or not contemporaneous with transmission, may be illegal in certain circumstances under federal, state and/or local laws. Legal advice should be sought prior to implementing any practice that monitors or records any phone conversation. Some laws require some form of notification to all parties to a phone conversation, such as by using a beep tone or other notification method or requiring the consent of all parties to the phone conversation, prior to monitoring or recording the phone conversation. Some of these laws incorporate strict penalties. In cases where local laws require a periodic beep while a conversation is being recorded, the Cisco Unity Express voice-mail system provides a user with the option of activating "the beep."
