Call Park
You can use your phone to park a call. You can then retrieve the call either from your phone or another phone,
such as a phone at a coworker's desk or in a conference room.
There are two ways you can park a call: call park and directed call park. You'll only have one type of call
park available on your phone.
A parked call is monitored by your network so you won't forget about it. If the call remains parked for too
long, you hear an alert. You can then answer, decline to answer, or ignore the call on your original phone.
You can also continue retrieving it from another phone.
If you don't answer the call within a certain length of time, it's routed to voicemail or another destination, as
set by your administrator.
A parked call occupies one line.
