    摘要: A conference call system with a plurality of endpoints, a switch and a media mixer is disclosed. One or more entities in the conference call system comprise part or whole of a feature module. The feature module executes various telephony features like adjusting the volume of a selected participant in a conference call, initiating a sidebar with a participant wherein other participants cannot hear the conversation of the participants in the sidebar, putting a selected call participant on hold from an endpoint other than the selected participant's endpoint, disconnecting a selected participant from an endpoint other than the selected participant's endpoint and transferring a call with two or more participants to a new participant's endpoint.

    摘要: A monitoring device 132 provides a shared call stack to a monitored extension and one or more proxy extensions. For example, the monitored extension is a boss' extension in a business environment, and the proxy extension is an extension for a boss' secretary. The monitoring device 132 detects an incoming call for the monitored extension. The incoming call is redirected, by the monitoring device 132, to a shared extension that is associated with the monitored extension. The shared extension has a shared call stack. The shared call stack has a call stack position that is shared with a proxy extension. The incoming call is made available as a call option in the call stack position so that the monitored extension and the proxy extension can user the monitoring device to perform call functions on the incoming call. The monitoring device can also perform call functions on outgoing calls.

    摘要: A distributed call pickup group system comprises a call manager having an extension module. The extension module further comprises a group pickup module, a group pickup call stack, a backup group pickup module and a monitoring group pickup module. The extension module controls and manages the functionality associated with the group pickup feature. The group pick module advantageously allows any extension regardless of its location in the system or the switch to which it is connected to be included within a pickup group. The backup group pickup module provides fault tolerance for the pickup functionality such that if a particular switch and its associated group pickup module fail, a backup group pickup module is identified and made operational. The present invention also includes a variety of methods including a method for creating a group pickup list, a method for performing through pickup and a method for backing up group picked up.
