[asterisk-users] Polycom Remotely Cancel Call Forward

[Darryl Dunkin]

In your per-phone configuration:

<phone1>
   <reg>
...
   <divert
       divert.fwd.1.enabled = "0"
       divert.fwd.2.enabled = "0"
       divert.fwd.3.enabled = "0"
       divert.fwd.4.enabled = "0"
       divert.fwd.5.enabled = "0"
       divert.fwd.6.enabled = "0"
   /> 

This removes the soft-key and disallows the option from the menu.

I can't stand that feature as the soft-key is terribly misplaced,
everytime you go hit 'end call', if the other user hangs up first, half
our users ended up forwarding their phone to an invalid extension on
accident.

I guess I was interested in Disabling the forwarding feature completely
via
the config.

When setting a forward on the phone, the phone will upload to your ftp
server a modified macaddr-phone.cfg XML file that (amongst other
locally made changes) contains an OVERRIDE statement similar to this:

<OVERRIDE reg.1.fwdContact="xxxx" reg.1.fwdStatus="1" ... />

Change the .fwdStatus attribute to "0", then reboot the phone (sip
notify polycom-check-cfg peername). That will removed the forward just
fine, at least in my setup here.

Works the other way as well: modify the XML file to list a valid
.fwdContact  and set .fwdStatus to "1", then reboot the phone. That
phone won't ring again until the forward is disabled :)
