[Asterisk-Users] call waiting notification and cisco 7960 phone

[Jeremy Hinton]

This is probably better suited to a cisco forum, but thought i'd drop it 
in here also. Using a 7960 with *, and have a very specific need. If the 
end user is currently on a call on the 7960, and a new call comes in, i 
need the phone to:

show a visual indicator of the call (pref flash the call light)
emit a ringing tone
*NOT* play a call waiting beep inline on the current call.

currently the phones do the exact opposite, ie no notification of an 
incoming call on the phone base (other than on the screen), and they 
play a call waiting tone inline on the current call.

I've tried disabling call waiting on the phone, and configuring the 
dialplan to roll from one "line" on the phone to the next if the first 
line is busy. This works, but the phone still acts the same way as when 
call waiting is enabled.

If anyone knows if this is possible (and even better how to do it), i 
would greatly appreciate any info. Thanks!
